JTS doesn't use the SRID you give it, right? So how do > you create it so the latitudes of the coordinates are not skewed? Well you are into some deep voodoo... I would project to an equal area projection measured in meters (like BC_ALBERTS for my area of the world), and then buffer in that. And then back project the polygon to lat/long.
