Trigon Pacific LPG Project - Public notice - Comments invited on the summary of the Initial Project Description and participant funding available

OTTAWA, ON, June 24, 2026 /CNW/ - Trigon Pacific Terminals Ltd. is proposing to construct, operate, and decommission a new liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) storage and transload facility, located at the Port of Prince Rupert in British Columbia. As proposed, the Trigon Pacific LPG Project would include building up to 20 rail unloading racks to receive LPG, including propane and butane. LPG would be stored in tanks with a capacity of up to 158,000 m3 before being transferred to marine vessels for shipment to global markets. The project would involve developing an existing brownfield area and leveraging existing infrastructure, including Trigon's existing jetty and LPG loading arms.
