A meeting was conducted on Monday, May 21, in Montgomery, Alabama, to review the workplan to assess potential ethanol plant sites in Alabama. The assessment is planned as a followup activity to the ethanol workshop held previously in Birmingham. As a result of the meeting, the workplan will be redrafted by June 8. The Auburn University Forest Products Development Center has agreed to perform the assessment when the workplan is finalized.
The work will be conducted under the Center’s funding and no additional funding is sought.
