Rumble On The River community  forums bring together expert voices  to explain the risks of having 90% of  Oregon’s fuel stored within Portland’s city  limits. The Critical Energy Infrastructure  (CEI) Hub, a 6-mile stretch of aging  tank farms, stands on an earthquake  liquefaction zone on the banks of the  Willamette River. The CEI Hub poses  serious health, safety, cultural, social  justice, economic and environmental risks  to every Portland neighborhood and the  entire Pacific Northwest region.  Rumble #9 will center on heat related inequities, crisis management  & resilience, understanding the harms  inflicted on the Lower Willamette and  steps we can take to deal with these long  term and immediate issues.

First Unitarian is one of many community partners sponsoring these forums. For more info and links to previous Rumbles contact: (503) 705-1943.v
