The proposed gas pipeline in Erris, County Mayo, has at various times been referred to as either a transmission, distribution, domestic, offshore, sales or upstream pipeline, and even “offshore landline”. One thing is certain; no-one outside of the shell/Statoil/Marathon partnership can take responsibility for the safety of the public. This is the number one concern for the people of Rossport. read full story / add a comment
