By Hsieh Chun-lin and Kayleigh Madjar / Staff reporter, with staff writer
Air Clean Taiwan (ACT) yesterday suggested southern Yunlin County’s Mailiao Harbor (麥寮港) as a potential location for a liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal, saying that it would save algal reefs and 20 million lives in western Taiwan.
Addressing Minister of Economic Affairs Wang Mei-hua (王美花) in a news conference at the Legislative Yuan, ACT Yunlin representative Lin Fu-yuan (林富源) blasted CPC Corp, Taiwan’s planned location for its third LNG terminal.
The project would sacrifice the algal reefs off the coast of Datan Borough (大潭) in Taoyuan’s Guanyin District (觀音), Lin said, urging the ministry to come up with an alternative plan.
