The Indiana General Assembly approved a project by Wabash Valley Resources, LLC to construct a Billion dollar facility north of Terre Haute designed to manufacture Fertilizer and collect and capture carbon and store it in the ground in our area. They also plan to build an 11 mile pipeline and may need to use eminent domain to secure easements. Many residents are opposed to the project and have attended recent meetings in New Goshen and Universal.

On this Policy and Politics with Dave Crooks, guests are Kerwin Olson of the Citizens Action Coalition and Clate CT Sanquenetti a local resident and creator of Concerned Citizens against Wabash Valley Resources. Learn more about this controversial project from those opposed.
