An energy company says its plan to build a multi-billion dollar liquid natural gas facility on the banks of the Delaware River would be a boon for the local economy, but some have stressed environmental concerns.

Penn-America Energy is mulling several spots between South Philadelphia and Marcus Hook for its hundred-acre facility natural gas liquefaction facility and export terminal, which would be the largest on the east coast.

"We want the type of companies that other communities compete for," Zulene Mayfield said. "Versus they have nowhere else to go and they want to also dump on poor black and brown people."
