"The BDF would consist of tire-derived fuel (TDF) coming from scrap tires brought to transfer stations and to landfills. The maximum permitted amount of BDF processed in the proposed facility would be approximately 1.1 million British thermal units (mbtu) /year or 43,000 tons of tires/year. Additionally, each biomass boiler would be capable of burning fuel oil in the event the biomass feed system fails."


oh, and this part is great too!


"Peak truck traffic would be 7 to 8 trucks an hour 5 days a week, 8 hour operation."


And that's just from your quote.


All for 17MW and two "heat generating facilities".

Is this the facility that will cost $800 million dollars?


Oh and this, btw, is from the Agency that says its ok to do mountaintop removal mining....
