Attend important Neighbors Vs. the Burner free public meeting!
Internationally-acknowledged authority on the health dangers of incineration, Dr. Paul Connett, will be appearing on the Macalester College campus on Wednesday, November 14, 2007 at 7:00 pm. This NAB public meeting will be an opportunity to learn more about the hazards of building an RDF (refuse-derived-fuel) incinerator to generate energy for the Rock-Tenn paper recycling plant at Hwy. 94 & Cretin. The meeting will be held in the Davis Lecture Hall, Macalester College Campus Center, Lower Level at 1600 Grand Ave. (SW corner of Grand & Snelling Avenues, St. Paul). Bring your friends and neighbors; this will be a forum you won't want to miss!

Contact your local elected officials (Here's How)
The City Council (and the Mayor) must ultimately vote on anything that the St. Paul Port Authority proposes, so the Council and the Mayor DO have the power to stop this burner, even if the Port Authority recommends it.
It will also be important to contact our Ramsey County Commissioners to let them know how we feel about this burner. They had previously voted unanimously in favor of this burner, and were, according to officials at Rock-Tenn, the ones who first proposed an RDF burner to Rock-Tenn.
It is worth noting that, when the Dakota County Commissioners attempted to build a burner in Dakota County, they all lost their seats in the next election, and the burner was NOT built!
