Chevron drops Baja LNG terminal plans -


Chevron Corp. has dropped plans to build a $650 million liquefied natural gas terminal off the West Coast of Mexico near the California border.
Chevron had in early 2005 gained a concession title that would have allowed construction of the proposed Baja LNG terminal based offshore in Mexican territorial waters, but the company had been fending protests from environmental groups that said the terminal would harm sea mammal and bird habitats.
