Community leaders from Ironton filed comments opposing the air permit application for the Tallgrass oil export terminal. The project, a joint venture between Tallgrass Energy LP, Drexel-Hamilton, and the Port of Plaquemines, is slated for construction in Plaquemines Parish at the site of the former St Rosalie plantation. The proposed oil export terminal would be built next to Ironton, a historic Black community whose residents say their ancestors were laid to rest at St Rosalie. If Tallgrass moves forward, Ironton leaders fear the desecration of these burial grounds.
