Thank you Lambada that was very helpful. Although my husband has family in Montellano and I would hate to see them living in a town with wose pollution than the Ingenio generated, at present my concerns are more selfish. My husband and I have a property in Montellano that we have not yet built on. It's has just been sitting there for a few years. If there are serious plans to move ahead with the ethanol plant, we will put our plans on hold for a few years until we are more certain of what is going to happen. If they do go ahead with the plant, I can't imagine it would be a great thing to live near? I used to see all the smoke and ash in the air when the sugar cane was burning when the Ingenio was still running but does anyone know what types of pollution an ethanol plant would put out and is it noisy and smelly?
