What We've Heard: "Broadwater technology is safe."

The Facts
This statement is untrue. LNG terminals are so scary there's actually a law preventing new ones from being sited near populations of 1 million or more. Terrorism is such a possibility that Shell hired a company headed by a retired brigadier general to hopefully protect it. Somewhere in the world one commercial ship a day is lost. Marine transport is an error-inducing system, where interconnections often defeat safety goals as well as operating efficiencies.

Broadwater or Fraudwater? You decide.
