The Washington Department of Ecology has added an additional phone-in-only public hearing for people with no or poor internet service to comment on the second Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SSEIS) for the proposed Kalama methanol facility.
The hearing will be held at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 23. An Ecology staff member will read a summary of the results of the study and then public comments will be taken.
Call-in space is limited to 250 participants. Ecology requests that people who have adequate internet service to please participate in one of the three other online hearings to preserve space.
