The Preston, Minn., City Council approved a permit to allow a tire recycling facility to be built.
A special meeting of the Preston, Minn., City Council has approved a building permit to Heartland Energy and Recycling LLC to construct a tire burning facility in the city. The decision is the final step in the company’s plan to build a facility in an industrial zone on the outskirts of the city.
Despite the approval, a group opposed to the facility, the South Eastern Minnesotans for Environmental Protection, have filed a suit in court, claiming the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency needs to perform an environmental impact statement before the plant can be built.
