Response to Commissioners'
Visit to Rensselaer Refinery
On Wednesday February 7, Kosciusko County
Commissioners Brad Jackson and Ron Truex flew to
Rensselaer, Indiana with Times Union reporter Teresa
Smith. Ms. Smith's article about the trip can be
read
here. The Commissioners were met in Rensselaer
by a group of Kosciusko county residents who had
driven to the site with Mail Journal reporter Tim
Ashley. Mr. Ashley's full-page coverage
appeared in the Feb. 14 edition of the Mail Journal
(no online edition). The NLACCA submitted an
article to both newspapers in response to the
reporting, addressing the many ways in which Milford
differs from Rensselaer, making Milford a much less
desirable location for a fuel refinery. Neither paper printed the article,
so we were forced to buy space in order to get it
published. Our article appeared in the Feb. 23
edition of the Times Union, and in the Feb. 28
edition of the
the Mail Journal.
