Round three for the public process on the proposed Pinnacle-Tolko pellet plant will be next Monday night. The public hearing was recessed after 4 hours Monday night and Mayor Jim Garlic says it'll also give both sides more time for questions and answers. He notes residents concerns included increased truck and train traffic, noise and the risk of fire at the plant. Garlick says council has had to get their comments in to the environment ministry already as there's a Friday deadline on the permit process. "We support the proposal if they can meet their requirements within the permitting process of the air quality objective. The other thing we would like is the Ministry of Environment to ask for air qualilty monitoring." That monitoring would be in the area of the Lavington school as well as anywhere particulate might flow.
