Commission Executive Director Peter Douglas said it was the first time the state agency had looked at greenhouse gases and the impact on global warming.
Douglas cited newly signed legislation, AB32, that gave the commissioners and the agency’s staff the authority to consider the amount of carbon dioxide that would be produced processing the natural gas and by the diesel-powered tankers that would be used to transport the liquid gas to California.
“Not only because of the Coastal Act but because it’s our obligation to the planet,” Douglas said.
