The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has scheduled a new round of public hearing sessions to accept public comments on its proposed action to approve an air permit to Energy Answers International Inc., which has announced plans to build a $500 million, 77-megawatt waste-to-energy plant at the former site of the Global Fibers Paper Mill in Arecibo.
Arecibo-area residents got their chance to express their concerns about the waste-to-energy incinerator project that New York-based Energy Answers is proposing to build in their neighborhood during an informative meeting that drew heavy participation this week.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced Monday it will hold a public hearing June 25 to give the public a chance to express their concerns about the proposed waste-to-energy plant project slated for Arecibo.
