ALTERNATE BIOGAS LOCATION UNLIKELY



Page #11 of yesterday's Elmira Independent has this story: "Alternate location unlikely for biogas plant". I can't give you the readers a link to it as while it's in the hardcopy paper I can't find this article on-line. We are advised that the Appeal deadline is this Tuesday April 10/12 for Woolwich Township. I would expect some announcement at that night's Council meeting regarding whether they went ahead with the Appeal or not. We are also advised via the proponent, Chuck Martin, that two major issues make an alternate location unlikely. Those issues are time and the Ontario Power Authority. I believe that where there is a will there is a way. While the will is here in Woolwich, including Council, for an alternate location, that will seems sorely lacking at the provincial level. Shame on both the Ministry of Energy and the Ministry of the Environment.
