Here is what a small biomass plant looks and sounds like

Submitted to Shelton Blog by Shelton Blogger

I paid a visit to the biomass incinerator in Grays Harbor County. This incinerator is about 1/4 the size of the one that ADAGE wants to install and about 1/2 the size of the one Simpson wants to install. It is loud and smelly. MANY of the houses near it are up for sale. In this first video you can hear the noise from the plant.

I could hear this plant very clearly from from the inside of my economy car with my kid making noise.



This next one was taken from the freeway so freeway sounds predominate:



Remember this is just 1/2 of the size of the one Simpson wants to install.

Feel free to distribute these particular photos and videos far and wide.

  1. Does anybody have pictures of what tracts look like after Adage, et al, have stripped them of all vegetation? Even the term 'biomass' is prejudicial...as though we were talking about unwanted trash and garbage! It's not 'biomass', it's the BIOSPHERE and we shouldn't be burning it. Doing so is like bailing water ONTO the Titanic to keep it afloat.
