Tuesday, February 15, 2011 04:00 AM

Prince George, B.C. - Since the start of the month, Enbridge has been hosting a series of public meetings in communities along its proposed Northern Gateway pipeline project...

Community information sessions have been held in Terrace, Kitimat and Burns Lake. This evening, the proponent of the $5.5-billion dollar twin pipeline project will host a technical information session in Prince George.

Northern Gateway reps plan to provide an update on key areas of interest, such as plans for environmental management along the pipeline's proposed 17-hundred km route, and local opportunities stemming from its construction and maintenance.

The four-hour session begins at 5pm at the Ramada Inn, with members of the public able to view displays and meet with project representatives. The presentation is set for 6:30pm and there will be a question-and-answer session afterwards.

A community session set for Fort St. James tomorrow evening has been cancelled, and Enbridge says it will be re-scheduled at a later date. Another technical session is set for Thursday at the Community Hall in Houston between 4:30pm and 8:30pm.

They can say whatever they want to. Talk is cheap. Their past record in leaks and shelved maintainance of existing pipelines, then their legal squirming in trying to escape legal responsibility for clean up after major leaks, tends to speak much more loudly and truthfully than anything in their published 'company committment' or what they have to say in public meetings.

Yup, just like Exxon/Esso.
