SQUAMISH, B.C. — The company behind a natural gas project near Squamish, B.C., has withdrawn its application for a local permit to house workers in a converted cruise ship, and is instead pressing ahead on the basis of a provincial order.
An inspection record from the B.C. assessment office says the liquefied natural gas project carries a requirement that any workers who didn't live in Squamish before Sept. 20, 2023, must live on the floatel unless they've been granted an exemption. Squamish councillors had voted three to four against a one-year permit at a meeting in May, where those opposed to the floatel plan raised concerns about the safety of women and girls, waste management and potential natural hazards.
"The province does have authority to do that, and there are specific mechanisms available for them to achieve that. This is not one of them." "Compliance with regulatory conditions is a core priority for the company and preparations are underway to move the floatel to site to accommodate workforce as mandated by the order," she said in a statement.
