SUMMARY:Comment Deadline for Roanoke Valley Lumber
DESCRIPTION:Draft Permit\nEnvironmental Justice Snapshot \nRoseburg Forest Products applied to the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality\, Division of Air Quality\, for a PSD (Prevention of Significant Deterioration) permit to construct and operate a new lumber sawmill\, named Roanoke Valley Lumber\, located at 290 Power Place Drive\, Weldon\, Halifax County\, NC. The mill will process southern yellow pine logs and includes lumber operations\, lumber drying\, planer mill\, and an emergency fire water pump. \nThe facility will be constructed in two phases: the first phase will support up to 300 million bd-ft per year of lumber drying capacity. The second phase will support additional 200 million bd-ft per year lumber drying capacity bringing the total capacity to 500 million bd-ft/yr. Even though the facility will be constructed in two phases\, this PSD permit approval is for the entire project (five kilns and ancillary equipment). \nThe facility is a new “major stationary source” for at least one regulated NSR pollutant (VOC). This new facility will also result in significant increases in the emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs). \nPersons wishing to submit written comments or request a public hearing regarding the Air Quality Permit are invited to do so. Requests for a public hearing must be in writing and include a statement supporting the need for such a hearing\, an indication of your interest in the facility\, and a summary of the information intended to be offered at such hearing. \nWritten comments or requests for a public hearing should be postmarked no later than February 17\, 2022 and addressed to daq.publiccomments@ncdenr.gov (Please type “Roanoke Valley Lumber.21A” in the subject line)\, or mail written comments to:\nNCDEQ Division of Air Quality\n1641 Mail Service Center\nRaleigh\, North Carolina 27699-1641 \nA public hearing may be held if the Director of the DAQ determines that significant public interest exists or that the public interest will be served.

SUMMARY:Information Sessions on draft permit for NC Renewable Power in Lumberton
DESCRIPTION:NC Renewable Power incinerates wood chips\, poultry litter\, and poultry cakes and produces electricity that is sold to Duke Energy. It is a highly polluting facility with major violations and  fines issued by NC DEQ. We are sharing this with you due to your interest in environmental and public health and environmental justice across North Carolina. \nThe two statewide informational sessions will be held at 11:00 am and 4:00 pm on Thursday\, February 17th. The Zoom Invite information is below.  \nWe are asking for local\, regional\, and statewide environmental organizations to: \n(1) support our local efforts to stand in opposition to the permit application of NC Renewable Power; \n(2) attend one of the information sessions on Thursday and learn about the facility\, its incineration process\, the pollution that it releases\, its plans to expand operations\, and the high number of violations\, fines\, and deficiencies that it has received for not keeping its state permit agreements; \n(3) attend and receive information about the DEQ Public Hearing on Monday\, call in information\, and how to sign up to make comments at the hearing.  \n(4) sign up to make a 2-3 minute comments  at the DEQ Public Hearing on Monday; and \n(5) organize constituencies across the state to attend the public hearing to indicate support for local residents in Robeson County and others throughout Eastern NC.    \nOur Eastern NC counties in the Sandhills and Coastal Plains are overburdened by unregulated and poorly regulated factory farms and the massive expansion of dirty industries that claim to be renewable.  They include what is inappropriately called “biomass” and “biogas”. As is said\, there’s nothing renewable and “bio” about these false solutions to the climate crisis but “bio harm”.   \nHere’s the zoom invite information for the optional meetings at 11:00 am and 4:00 PM this Thursday\, February 17th: \nTopic: NC Renewable Power and Public Hearing Information Sessions\nTime: Feb 17\, 2022 11:00 AM and 4:00 PM EST \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/3052705077?pwd=QXM1UG1peVFsS01hWHp6UVQyZUFzUT09\nMeeting ID: 305 270 5077\nPasscode: 963140 \nInformation to Review on NC Renewable Power  \nhttps://docs.google.com/document/d/1-ezugSKeKYPr2jv6VQVPziM_xJwAU5BL6vwB_GAt2eQ/edit \nhttps://docs.google.com/document/d/1-sVog6mCBugJHlS1_pJOYSqx4060zCWZistjKYNwXKw/edit \nhttps://coastalplainsadvocate.bulletin.com/is-this-the-solution-to-the-poultry-litter-problem \nNC Department of Environmental Quality Announcement of the Public Hearing\, Call-in information\, and information for signing-up to make comments \nhttps://docs.google.com/document/d/1hPMu7LRYjqa1072i3cB-_Fytg2QIZS9mpxUFYe98apY/edit \nSubmitted by the Local Planning Team\nJeff Currie\, Lumber RiverKeeper\nDonna Chavis\, Friends of the Earth and RedTailed Hawk Collective\nMac Legerton\, Robeson County Cooperative for Sustainable Development
