The Suwannee/ St. Johns Sierra Club opposes any new waste-to-energy facilities in the North Central Florida region. We are a conservation group and strongly support conservation of energy and natural resources. Not fuel burning facilities.
Dixie Waste Services, LLC, Dixie County, now wishes to extend an “Air Construction Permit” from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. In the application to FDEP, the applicant lists primary and secondary control devices as “Not Applicable”, when queried on their application about the process of scrubbing the by-products of “Syngas”, a gas that produces lots of energy at a lower temperature to turn the turbines that generate more electricity. Reading between the lines, we oppose FDEP in permitting this private outfit from eventually burning tires, garbage and medical waste.
