PETITION AGAINST PROPOSED ETHANOL PLANT A proposed ethanol plant is being planned in an area with residences in San Pierre (37 acres located on the corner of US421 and 500 S). We are opposed to the ethanol plant because we are concerned about the effects the pollutants will have on our air and water supply. We are also concerned about the increased traffic on this already overly traveled highway. The plant would store large quantities of hazardous flammable materials. But most importantly, we are concerned about the impact the ethanol production will have on our health.
I spent the entire morning staring at maps of the 421 and 500 S intersection and honestly it just makes me feel more sick than ever about these trucks. People keep messaging me with their own nightmare stories about the local air quality and I am trying to organize them all but my inbox is a total disaster right now. They really think we are just going to let them put giant tanks of flammable chemicals right next to our homes without a fight.

The traffic on 421 is already a nightmare. Putting a plant there is just asking for a major accident to happen. Bad idea.
