Summary –
The bill would prohibit the sale or distribution of products containing olefins derived from methanol manufactured from natural gas, on the grounds (according to the bill’s findings) that the Department of Ecology refused to permit the proposed Kalama methanol plant because “the manufacturing process does not comply with Washington’s rules for reducing global emissions” and that it’s only consistent for us to not support its being done anywhere else.
