This is long term environmental remediation project that will be daily trucking asbestos tailings between 2 points. Why not a rail shuttle of covered hoppers?
GROVETON — A proposal that has been in the works for several years is now coming to light - an asbestos processing plant in Groveton, which the developer said has the natural gas pipeline to make it work.
The plan - still preliminary, far from any approval, and facing challenges - stems from the federally mandated cleanup of the now-inactive 1,540-acre Eden-Lowell asbestos mine at Belvidere Mountain in Vermont that, until the health dangers of asbestos became widely known, had been run by the Vermont Asbestos Group before it was shut down more than 20 years ago.
In 2013, Vermont Asbestos Group, co-owned by Howard Manosh, of Morrisville, Vt., reached a settlement with the Vermont attorney general and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in regard to the group’s liability.
