Presentation: THE CRITICAL ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE HUB, Oregon’s Multi-Billion Dollar Risk

The Critical Energy Infrastructure Hub (CEI Hub) is a six-mile strip of land on the west bank of the Willamette River located in the city center of Portland. The CEI Hub contains over 90% of all the fuel stored in the entire state. The CEI Hub is also located on a high-risk geohazard zone! The presentation includes ESF's recommendations to state, county, and state legislators on actions to mitigate the safety, environmental, and economic risks from the CEI Hub.
