They state that Brockton has an astonishing Particulate Matter level (PM2.5) of 30.7 micrograms per cubic foot, a level of 35 would breach Federal Safety standards ,our levels have been going up each year just with the burning of additional sledge from Sewage Treatment Plant,this is without even taking into consideration the added 85 more tons per yeas that would be produced by the proposed power plant.,They suggest that what our City needs is to cut down on its existing pollution and look to the future which is safe clean renewable energy .barbara carchidihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12440239583428887931noreply@blogger.com
