Help Us Save Mayfield!!!!!!
If this plant is built as planned, it will be the # 2 polluter in Lackawanna County.
According to emissions reports that are fully accessible to the public on the DEP website, the only greater polluter is the Alliance Landfill. If you calculate Volitile Organic Compound totals for all DEP monitored industrial facilities in Lackawanna County, and compare them to the proposed Mayfield ethanol plant, it would rank # 2. All totals are represented as tons of pollutants. Please visit our Resources page for links to the complete data set:
