The North Fork Community Development Council is moving forward with the planning for constructing a 1MW bioenergy generation facility at the town’s former Mill Site. The project is a strategic step to producing green energy and finding economic uses for biomass material generated by forest management and hazardous field treatment activities in the area. It is also an important step towards redeveloping the mill site and restoring the town’s economy.
This workshop will provide a project overview and an update to the initial project workshop last November. There will be time to address questions and issues of concern. We also plan to make it out in the field to view forest conditions and visit the proposed project location.
Please RSVP to: bdmillsite@gmail.com. The workshop will be held at the North Fork Rancheria Community Center. Directions will be provided upon RSVP.
For more information, please contact Elissa Brown (559-877-2432) or Brittany Dyer (559-877-8664).
