As Lower Columbia area ponders dangers of new LNG terminal, Savannah, Ga., residents report few problems with their own.
As the Daily News of Longview, Washington reports, “Daily News reporter Tony Lystra visited the Elba Island liquefied natural gas import terminal in Savannah, Ga., last week to find out what might come to the Columbia River if federal regulators approve a new facility proposed by NorthernStar Natural Gas.â€
There is a proposed natural gas terminal for Oregon on the Columbia River across from the Puget Sound and they are turning to Savannah’s site for pros/cons of the location, incidents and to discuss the possibility of terrorist activities.
Savannah has been home to Elba Island for almost 30 years and I have often wondered the history behind the LNG location – this article gives a great overview.

Philly, San Fran, New York, Cleveland and other cities are all establishing citywide wi-fi networks. I think Savannah should do the same! Our downtown is a much more manageable size to initiate this type of project, and imagine the results. We already have great coffee shops and more with wi-fi installed, but it’d be great to sit at the park and work, or pull up a bench in a square on a cooler day. I could write these blog posts from River Street with a daiquiri in hand, not that I would, but if we had citywide wi-fi…hm….plus, I could do some clever ‘Interview with a Tourist’ type posts – that would be interesting!
Does Savannah have an initiative to do this type of project? There is a great list on our site of individual wi-fi hotspots – check it out.
Hm…Do I see a potential mapping project for me (coughNERDcough)?
If Savannah had downtown free wi-fi coverage, where would you love to go surf the interwebs?
