Several western Colorado officials will travel to Coos Bay, Oregon, next week to show a united front in hopes of encouraging a federal agency to back a project that would carry natural gas from the Piceance Basin to the Pacific Rim. The impromptu trip comes against the backdrop of an approval by the Canadian government of the Pacific Northwest liquefied natural gas project near Prince Rupert, said Rio Blanco County Commissioner Shawn Bolton, who planned a side trip to Coos Bay while in Ashland, Oregon, on other business.
