flyfshn Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 Anyone heard of a new or potential ethanol plant going in somewhere down south? I heard they may build one that may affect one of the streams?

Terry Beeson Posted August 5, 2007 Posted August 5, 2007 Seymour Rogersville (I think it was around Fordland?) area on Hwy 60 is where it's suppose to be, but there is a big opposition and it will probably be tied up for a while.

Thom Posted August 8, 2007 Posted August 8, 2007 The environmental impact studies usually tie up most of those kinds of projects so long that they take forever to complete. New plants are not usually a problem to the environment. It is the old retrofits and plants that have employees alredy that are most difficult to monitor because of the politacal repercussions. Don't be surprised to see the Ethanol dream slowly go away after the election are past. Seems most politicians get real interested in the problelms just prior to elections and develope amnesia after they are sworn into office. Thom Harvengt

Chief Grey Bear Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 Rumor mill says Neveda/Neosho/Carthage area... No rumor. One is in construction just west of Neveda. I think near the intersection of highway 54 and 43. Not near any creek or river that I can recall being in the area.

Project Healing Waters Posted August 25, 2007 Posted August 25, 2007 Ethanol plants use UNGODLY amounts of ground water. The one in Rogersville is meeting stiff opposition, and it is the one that threatens the James River watershed. Guess whose money is behind that project? Congressman and Jr (the Governor) Blunt. Don't count on it being tied up too awfully long! The EIS from that one says the water table in the area would be severely depleted within 8 years of commencement of operations. When asked about this at a recent town hall meeting, Congressman Blunt said that we shouldn't worry about problems we don't have yet. Build the plant, deplete the ground water, and we'll worry about the ground water depletion once it's a reality. This was reported in the media. I forget where. If that's his concept of good public planning and natural resource management, we need to run this guy out of Congress. http://www.projecthealingwaters.org
