North Port St. Joe PAC to host meeting over proposed Nopetro plant
The North Port St. Joe Project Area Coalition will be hosting a “community awareness and transparency meeting” regarding the proposed Nopetro LNG plant, which is in the early stages of being planned for the former paper mill site in Port St. Joe.
The meeting will be held on Friday, October 14 at noon at Philadelphia Primitive Baptist Church.
At the meeting, presentations will be made by representatives from Public Citizen, an advocacy group behind a lawsuit seeking federal oversight for the project, and community leaders.
The meeting is open to the public, and people are encouraged to bring questions and voice their opinions.
Lunch will be provided.
