Even state-of-the-art ethanol plants create air pollution,
odors, heavy truck traffic, and dangers of explosion, fire,
chemical releases. But Penn-Mar's proposed ethanol plant
design is not even state-of-the-art, according to a
representative of the plant's designer Lurgi,
PSI:
"it's not a Model T; it's not a Hummer.
But, I'd say it's on
the order of a seven to eight." [out of ten]
Testimony of Richard M. Veazie (Principal Process Engineer,
Manager of Process/Mechanical Engineering, Lurgi PSI, Inc.): See
this testimony.
Also see
Adkins Energy another Lurgi PSI designed ethanol plant.

TRAFFIC from large trucks:
Traffic in Monroe, Wisconsin (home of the
Badger State Ethanol plant visited by LIDA's "Review Team" after
the sale of CVBP land to Penn-Mar Ethanol).
"The biggest traffic jam in Monroe is a farmer hauling a load of
corn somewhere...lines up 4 or 5 cars behind..."
Monroe's Mayor refers to its unique location:
"isolated, not a lot of big city growth..."
