Approved with Conditions:Environment Minister Mark Parent issued an environmental assessment approval for a $4.5-billion liquefied natural gas and petrochemical facility in Goldboro, Guysborough County, that Keltic Petrochemicals Inc. wants to build with partner Maple LNG.
Keltic must address 59 recommendations made by a review panel as part of the environmental assessment before any work can begin. Keltic president Kevin Dunn said "We’re on track" with the requirements although he acknowledged the question of a liquefied gas supply remains an issue for the project.
In Depth: Here is the complete Nova Scotia government process dating from November, 2006. Includes all public input (now closed), to environmental assessment results, ecological research, habitat studies, etc.
