NORTH FORK – A community meeting on the North Fork Bioenergy Project will be held on Wednesday, Apr. 29, at Fire Station 11 on the Old Mill Site, 33400 Douglas Ranger Station Road from 5:30 to 8 p.m.
This event is hosted by the North Fork Community Development Council and coordinated by the Sierra Resource Conservation District.
There will be a brief presentation on the progress of the project so far, and then a Q&A session, followed by a brief tour of the mill site. Participants are advised to wear comfortable walking shoes.
The goal of the North Fork Bioenergy Project is the construction and operation of a one-megawatt combined heat and power gasification facility in North Fork, Calif. This project would utilize forest sourced woody biomass produced by sustainable restoration treatments.
The project was recently awarded a $4.9 million grant by the California Energy Commission for construction and research. These meetings are made possible by support from Sierra Nevada Conservancy.
