Zenith Red Alert: Zenith sues Portland. “The city’s delays have already cost Zenith over $10 million says the lawsuit." www.wweek.com/news/courts/...

Oil Terminal Operator Sues City of Portland for Delaying Transfer of Franchise AgreementZenith Terminals LLC today filed a lawsuit alleging the city of Portland has unreasonably delayed approving the transfer of Zenith’s franchise agreement with the city to a purchaser of the terminal.www.wweek.com

Come to City Hall Thursday at 9:30 am to testify! Tell the councilors they cannot fast track this process. We want corporate accountability, transparency, and meaningful public engagement. #SafetyFirst

Historically, our city officials let us down repeatedly with Zenith Energy and community confidence is very low in the Mayor or city staff to adequately scrutinize this franchise transfer to i Squared, a $60 billion private equity firm.

We are excited for 1803 Fund's vision and plans for lower Albina and the Albina Riverfront. Thanks for including us in the tour today. We look forward to collaborating with you.

Ferries used connect the City of Albina with the City of Portland. We now have the opportunity to create an all-electric, public ferry system for Portlanders. #ReimagineTheRiver #FrogFerry

Zenith Energy, Portland's notorious climate villain, is trying to quietly sneak out of town by selling its dangerous facility to I Squared Capital, an international private equity firm worth $60 billion in worldwide assets. Sign up to testify to City Council. www.portland.gov/council-cler...

Not too long ago, there were no dangerous tank farms in NW Portland. The Willamette River was a braided river that provided a sustainable economy until the river was dredged and the dredge became the liquifiable soil we now find under the aging CEI Hub tank farms. #SafetyFirst #ProtectPCEF

This is the designated smoking area in Portland's CEI Hub in the middle of the tank farms aka ticking time bombs. We can and must do better. #StopZenith #SafetyFirst #ProtectPCEF #MomsAgainstVaping #NoBailoutsForBillionaires

Imagine if we gave the Willamette River a seat at the table when the City Council decides how to make the CEI hub tank farms safer!

The CEI Hub, at the foot of Forest Park and on the Willamette River in NW Portland, is a source of Portland's largest heat island according to PSU Professor Vivek Shandas. We can and must do better. #SafetyFirst #CoolTheEarth #ShadeEquity #ProtectPCEF

👀 We remember the 11 workers who were killed in Longview as we work with Portland City Council to protect people from the tank farms at the CEI Hub. They are ticking time bombs on the river at the foot of Forest Park.

Just three miles from Portland City Hall, Zenith Energy owns the largest tank farm at the CEI hub. They have a history of illegal actions here in the city. Portland can and must do better to protect people from the dangerous fuels and chemicals.

@toosphexy.bsky.social What do you think about this language in the Economic Opportunities Analysis proposal being considered by Portland City Council?

We're keeping our eyes wide open for Tetra Tech. While they're pitching their vision to clean up Ross Island with HeronPark, they are embroiled in a costly lawsuit in CA. www.courthousenews.com/us-navy-cont...

We are working with folks across the city to stop a disturbing trend: decision makers prioritizing corporate profit over people. Chevron, NW Natural Gas, Zenith, and others should reduce the amount flammable fuels they store at the dangerous CEI Hub located on the river at the foot of Forest Park.

Oh look! Two of the patron sponsors of the Portland Metro Chamber's event at the Moda Center on Wednesday are also owners of dangerous tank farms in Portland's Critical Energy Infrastructure (CEI) Hub.
