Nov. 19 Hearing on US Nitrogen Permit

Tennessee environmental officials have set a Nov. 19 date for an on-line hearing on the proposed renewal of a permit which allows a Greene County firm, US Nitrogen, to pump millions of gallons of wastewater into the Nolichucky River.
In a notice issued last week the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation announced that the 7 p.m. hearing will be preceeded by a one hour question and answer session.
The current permit expires on Oct. 31.
The ammonium nitrate manufacturer already has received approval for the renewal of another permit under which it draws millions of gallons of water from the river.
