Consider all the implications of coal terminal - we can do better

Port of Longview
We can do better.
The fire at the Millennium Bulk Terminals site last week highlights the need for our community to have this property cleaned up once and for all. Given the legitimate concern over the potential toxic air pollution and related health impacts from this fire, our community should really be concerned about the long-term health and economic impact of having tons of coal going through Cowlitz County on rail cars and sitting out in the open on the Millennium site.
