ADAGE is building a biomass plant in Florida just as they hope to do here in Mason County. Check out the following website from a Florida community fighting this same project:

This is happening everywhere in the US right now. 400 known incinerator projects are proposed across the country.
Do we want an incinerator in Mason County? Is there any difference between the plant in Florida and the proposed plant in Mason County? What would we do to bring 25 to 30 permanent jobs into our county?
We need more information and we need to be involved in this decision process. We saw how quickly the local water agreement was approved. Hopefully that won't happen as the permits for this plant go through the approval process. Let the commissioners know that we need information provided and then we need an opportunity to ask questions.
