Transporting LNG on Neighborhood Streets Continues to Raise a Stink

Oct. 7 Town Hall Meeting to focus on LNG proposal

The City of Savannah will hold a special Town Hall Meeting next week focused on a proposal to truck liquefied natural gas (LNG) through Savannah.

The event will be held at 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 7, in the Savannah Civic Center Ballroom. Make plans to attend and sound your opinion



The City has hired a consultant to advise City Council on the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission process and provide technical detail on the proposal. The consultant will make a presentation to the public at the Town Hall Meeting. Members of the public are then invited to offer input. Savannah City Council will be in attendance.

Southeast LNG has applied to FERC for permission to activate a trucking operation from its Elba Island facility. The route would send trucks hauling LNG west on the Islands Expressway, south on the Truman Parkway, and west down DeRenne Avenue to I-516.
