Tony, it's now a region wide issue with the Monterey Bay air district coming down hard on any business that emits anything during production. I'm sure this new facility will be under their thumb from Day 1. This is the agency that wants to outlaw wood burning stoves and push surfboard manufacturing out of the area so they can improve on an already low baseline and keep the EPA dollars flowing in. They of course already had their way with Davenport.
On a positive note, thanks for the pics and report Howard. It has been great hearing trains again now that Big Trees is back on a daily schedule.
