A
second worker floatel will soon be cruising its way up Howe Sound to the Woodfibre LNG site. A request from Woodfibre LNG to allow a second floating workcamp or “floatel” to accommodate the construction workers building the liquefied natural gas export facility southwest of downtown Squamish, has been approved by the Environmental Assessment Office (EAO). A provincial government release sent out Nov. 6 says the EAO’s deputy chief executive assessment officer Chris Trumpy made the decision “after carefully considering the EAO’s comprehensive review.” The application to amend Woodfibre LNG’s environmental assessment certificate also requires approvals by Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish Nation).
