It is nearly 9 times the footprint and 13 times the production capacity of similar projects the small community has experienced in the past. It's a large project. It will require the relocation of our highway since two-thirds of the facility footprint is located on the east side of the highway, one-third on the west side of the highway, the inlet side.

While we contribute to and absorb the cost, reconnecting subdivisions in the area, and we're supportive.
