Site on Walters Spur eyed for oil plant
A land strip west of town, between the railroad spur to Walters Mill and the highway, has been suggested as a possible site for the fused Uranium plant amid opposition from St Joseph’s Academy supporters and Pendleton doctors. Ireland, company rep, says the east site below the golf links is unlikely. The preferred west end site sits about a quarter mile west of the mill, near the state hospital, with reportedly good rail and highway access and railroad switching available. Local sentiment against the eastern location has grown, and officials note the west end site as a potential alternative to move the project forward.
