    There was NO Environmental Analysis in this case.GURR is siting 320,000 gallons of Liquid Propane Gas within mere FEET from many homes, an Elementary school, ad a library. None of this was included in the STB decision. Who specifically may I contact about this? Please see 2 attachments taken from the current GURR's own filing with the MA State Fire marshall regarding blast zones and distances. As an off site receptor" aan elementary school is a mere 1500 FEET from the tanks. Who to contact regarding the fact that this location was never reviewed by the STB?"

    This project was approved by the STB, but NO environmental review was conducted. The STB decision concludes with statement that there would be no negative impact on the human environment.This project involves the storage of 320,000 gallons of liquid propane in a residential neighborhood less than 1/2 mile from an elementary school. The elementary school and many homes are well within the blast area if there were ever an incident. Did the STB board members know the location of this project? Please tell me whom I may contact to reopen consideration of this project. Maybe it could be done on a smaller scale than 320,000 gallons of explosive material. Thank you.
