Changes to Tacoma Liquefied Natural Gas facility permit proposed by PSE
A virtual public hearing is planned this month to hear feedback on proposed modifications to certain regulations over Tacoma’s LNG facility. Puget Sound Energy, which operates the site, outlined the requested changes in a May 3, 2024 letter to the Puget Sound Clean Air Agency.

It isn’t the Pokémon cards that might break this case open. It’s the pickup the burglars used to get to them.
