I am going to try and attend this meeting.

I think we should ask how much Mercury the plant will
emit and is this Best Available Technology?

Why should Waterloo residents suffer the health
effects of air pollution to provide power to Milwaukee
and Chicago.

Why isn't this plant an Integrated Coal Gasification
Plant?

Where are the transmission lines going and who is
paying for them?
