Right now, Puget Sound Energy (PSE) is seeking approval from the Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission (UTC) to finalize a contract with their affiliate company (Puget LNG) to begin operating their LNG facility on the Tacoma Tideflats in May–
months before the Puyallup Tribe and environmental organizations challenging the facility will receive a decision on their appeal, which could invalidate PSE’s permits and prohibit the facility from operating.
The UTC has the ability to amend this contract to ensure it is in the public interest.
We know this facility endangers our health, safety, and climate.
The UTC needs to hear from the public that they must delay the operation of the facility and conduct an investigation to determine whether the contract between PSE and Puget LNG serves the public interest.

Allowing PSE to flip the switch on Tacoma LNG in May is NOT in the public interest. #NoLNG253 #FrackOffPSE
