I am writing to implore you to prevent the BioMass plant from coming to Springfield. The proposed site
of the plant is near my house and I definitely do not
want it there or anywhere in the city. We have a high rate of asthma here and
the pollution that would come from it would only make things worse. We fought
this fight about 9 years ago and I am saddened that we are in the same place
again. If it must be built then let it be somewhere
where the population is not so dense or let it be in Longmeadow or Agawam. I
don’t want it built anywhere but I ask myself why does it have to be in my
city? Please don't let this happen in our city. We cannot afford the costs
associated with it. Thank you.
