Process Water Map with Wetlands all along Pipe Creek What will be the effect on the ecological and bacterial composition of the creek and the wetlands during drought, winter, or heavy rain seasons? Take a look at the map showing the wetlands and floodplains for the area. 300,000 gallons may sound like a lot of water, but during normal intermittent rain season, the water is not necessarily the problem. The most problematic factor is that the water is bacteria logically cleaner than water running off of fields into the creek, therefore changing the bacterial composition of the water on a constant basis. The vegetation and wildlife will be affected. Let your voice ring out! Many of the neighbors around the Ethanol Plant would like to invite those who oppose the ethanol plant to construct and display signage on their property for the Governor to see when he makes his visit soon. Many communities have welcomed the ethanol plant into their industrial parks with very open arms. But, our location is not the same as others. If you would like to place a sign in the area, please send an email to info@ethanolrailroad.com with what you will be saying on your sign, and we will be happy to get your sign in the ground near the plant. If you would like to allow signage in your yard, please send your address and contact information to info@ethanolrailroad.com We will contact you and let you know when signs are being submitted for placement in your yard. These signs will not always be in your yard. The goal is to have them in the ground when the Governor comes to town. articles about airborne particulate matter increasing heart disease in women Picture Journal
CAUTION: Please everyone must use extreme caution (even more than we already do) when traveling in the vicinity of Alexandria. The local government is convinced that the addition of an ethanol plant will create a greater attraction to our currently quiet but dangerous city.
GOOD NEIGHBOR SUGGESTIONS -
Please also note that none of the affected parties are against the production of ethanol, but rather would like not to have the plant effect our daily lives as dramatically as the current proposal does. |

Why is everyone so worked up? Now you can read for
yourself the pages from the Air Quality Permit Application
that caused questions from the concerned neighbors and has only resulted in poor
answers that don't even use the emissions included in the Broin application. WWW.EPA.GOV - Why should you be concerned about air pollution? Ethanol Refinery

Why is the EPA working on Aquifer
investigation, when we were led to believe that one part per
billion would not kill you?
The answer is: when the EPA studied the travel of Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene
and Xylene, it was determined that they don't degrade as rapidly as they would
like to see. Read the Final Report of a 4 year study

Alexandria take the time to read through this site. The information is overwhelming but can be summed up by saying that the negatives far outweigh the positives.
The ethanol plant placement is illogical and unhealthy for our air and water supply.
The increases in truck and train traffic will be doubled.
There are many local companies the city can work with to create new jobs (over 75). The local government said that it is very hard to get new business in our city, so we add a business that makes our city more difficult to travel through that should allow us to attract more businesses.

GOOD POLITICS: WHAT ARE THE BEST SOLUTIONS FOR YOUR PEOPLE - IN ORDER TO LEARN WHAT IS BEST, ONE MUST ASK THE HARD QUESTIONS AND THEN BE READY TO ADMIT THAT YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THE ANSWERS - ASK MORE QUESTIONS, THEN GET HELP FROM MULTIPLE UNBIASED PROFESSIONALS AND TALK TO THE NEIGHBORS PERSONALLY TO GET THEIR INPUTS - ASK MORE QUESTIONS - DEVELOP A COMPREHENSIVE SET OF ANSWERS THAT MAKE THOSE CLOSEST TO THE INFECTION HAPPY TO ACCEPT THE CHANGE - THEN YOU WILL HAVE AN ANSWER FOR THE PUBLIC THAT TAKES CARE OF ALL CONCERNS.
BAD POLITICS: RAILROADING YOUR DECISION BASED ON MONEY DOWN THE THROATS OF THOSE WHO VOTED FOR YOU WITHOUT ANY REGARD FOR THEIR QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS. MUDSLINGING AGAINST THOSE WHO WANT ANSWERS ABOUT IMPORTANT ISSUES REGARDING THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF YOUR CITY. USING DIVERSIONARY TACTICS TO DIVIDE THE OPPOSITION AND CREATING STORIES THAT DIVERT THE ATTENTION OF THE PUBLIC AWAY FROM THE HEALTH CONCERNS CREATED BY THE ETHANOL PLANT. USING EXCUSES AND NON-RELATED ANSWERS TO CREATE MORE CONFUSION AMONG THE MASSES UNTIL YOU CAN GET YOUR IDEA PASSED - SO NO ONE CAN STOP IT.
