A group of Arecibo residents has gathered and submitted more than 1,500 signatures in favor of the proposed $500 million, 77-megawatt waste-to-energy plant project by Albany, NY-based Energy Answers International Inc. for the Cambalache sector of the northern Puerto Rico town.
Green Energy Renewable Solutions Inc., a developer and operator of municipal solid waste processing and recycling facilities announced it has entered into a “Letter of Intent” to form a joint venture with Landfill Solutions, LLC of Puerto Rico, to remediate and manage the Yabucoa municipal landfill that has been closed since 2011.
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.
