A local diary farm was charged with violating state water
quality standards after last week’s heavy rains allegedly washed
manure off a field and into a tributary feeding the Owasco and
Skaneateles lake watersheds.

DEC cites farm for manure runoffThe Owasco Lake Watershed inspector said the foam shown in this
photo indicates that manure from a nearby Twin Birch Dairy farm
field was washed into Dutch Hollow Brook tributary during last
week’s heavy rain. The photo was taken by the watershed inspector
as part of an ongoing investigation into the run-off pollution that
entered both the Skaneateles and Owasco lake watersheds.

Dear Citizens and friends of the Town of Schroeppel and Village of Phoenix, Thanks for all of the help and support you gave. We were able to keep mining from spoiling our town, and most importantly, our water supply. We need your help once again to pay the lawyer we hired to ensure our position if the vote had not gone in our favor. The bill came to just over $5000.00 and we are asking each family to make a $10.00 donation to the Pleasant Lake Association, who will be writing the final check. Of course, we will accept a donation of any size that you would like to make. The fastest and easier way to make a donation is online through PayPal. Even if you don't have a PayPal account, you can still donate using a credit or debit card. Click the button below to donate online

| Take the Kreider Farms Tour Click Here On Monday (May 9, 2011) a member of the CFA & a Syracuse U student who is majoring in Film Documentary toured the Kreider Farm and the local area to find out how the Kreider Farm and the Bion project in Oswego County are a like. ( Film will be previewed in Aug) The farm pictured below is the Kreider Farm that has the Bio reactor on it ---- The picture below was taken in 1992 (No Bio reactor was on it at that time ) Information about the Farm 1. 1,200 dairy cows are in the Barn to the Top Left 2. Middle Barn is the Milking Barn -Cows are milked 3 times per day. 3. Next Barn is the Barn they use for sick cows 4. Ponds below the Barns are for the cows waste (3 ponds ) 5. The Bio reactor now is located just below the Barns in the ponds area as of (May 9, 2011) 6. The building to the lower far right are for 5 million chickens |

Protect Family Farms Say No to Animal Factories in I join with Citizens for Family Farms in calling for the Town of Schroeppel to rescind the December 2009 resolution and reject the Bion Environmental Technologies, Inc. animal factory proposed for Oswego County. Bion’s 72,000 beef factory would slaughter 600 cattle every day. This factory will negatively
impact local property values and pollute our air, land, and water. It is not a suitable project for CNY. |

The pollution and run off of their feces will pollute out waters and bring delcine to our land and economics. The removel of meat from our diets all together lead to a btter quality of life and is great for the enviroment, but for those who still want meat, we should be promoting small family farms and not corporate factory farms!!!!! |

| Heidi Caltabianol, Phoenix NY This industrial farm is a horrible Idea. Between the pollution and the caliber of workers who would be attracted to work in a slaughter house, this is absolutely awful. I feel that we should encourage a much smaller local processing plant for small local producers to process their more environmentally responsibly raised local meat products. This would be a positive thing for our community and bring us closer to our food as opposed to the proposed industrial operation that can create so many problems and allow americans to continue to be disconnected from where their meat comes from. |

| shari darling fulton our community is too small to have a plant that size. anyway ,why are they even considering our town for something so assinine? it would create jobs for our community but at what cost to our environment |
| joe dinicola, Syracuse Okay lets get past the Barbarianism, there are other alternatives, you don't need Meat or poultry, to get protein, stop letting big factory farms rule humanity and animal welfare!. |
| Valerie Gray-Morgan,Phoenix This is not needed in our town. The smell,pollution and hazards on the invorement would greatly reduce the nice home town that we have! |
| Skyler Smart, Phoenix |
| Jennie Smart Phoenix NY We couldn't keep our animals penned up and in that much of a confined space so why should Bion. You should only have as much animals as your land can comfortably house. |
| Karilyn DeSpain, Mexico, NY |

| Jennifer VanWormer- Pennellville |
| Ryan Conger Phoenix I live directly behind industrial park on those farm lands we don't want it here |
| Melissa Perry - Pennellville, NY |
| Alexis Jeffries Fulton I think that this plant is absurd. It will be placed near the daycare, and will release a lot of pollutin into the air, for the children and adults to breathe in. It isn't right to subject anyone, especially the little kids, to that. |

| Joanne A Sweet Phoenix NY |
| Linda A. DeStefano Clay NY update
Hasn't the rejection from st. Lawrence co. which has historically been a very poor county made any leeway with this county?
It would in my estimation be a good thing to take a
field trip to just such a worksite to see what is in store for people
who actually work at these jobs. I can imagine that it is not a pretty
picture. A picture is worth a 1,000 words.

| Tammy Wolfanger Syracuse |
| James. W. Sweet Phoenix |
| Todd Hobin- Pennellville Jobs? Who do you think is going to take or want these jobs? Think about it. High paying jobs? Probably not. They will most likely import the labor force to do their dirty work. Hmmm.... long term, are they creating opportunity for this area? Or opportunity for somebody else? Will they bring prosperity or... will Oswego County inherit another stinking problem |
| Pat Kelly, Pennellville |
| Bob Kelly, Pennellville I grew up on a small dairy farm. I can't imagine how many trucks a day would be going in and out to feed 72,000 head of cattle, and then hauling out the butchered beef as well. What would they do, hire 300 illegal Mexicans to work there? |
| Laura McGinley Palermo |
| J O'Connor- Hannibal Something of this magnitude shouldn't be considered in a populated area. People need to start calling their legislators and telling them to say no to Bion. |
| Jeffrey & Reiko Young, Pennellville, NY We already have an ethanol plant in Fulton which has just started producing. We oppose to bringing in another huge plant so close to it and involving an enormous number of animals to deal with in a small community like Town of Schroeppel. We have been trying so hard to build such nice neighborhood we are proud of. They should find some open land with lot less residents; not in the Town of Schroeppel, for sure. |

| Poppy Husted Pennellville NY |
| Patricia Dunn Rt. 264 Phoenix NY I've seen some stupid ideas proposed to increase jobs, but this one tops them all. We want to be the "guinea pig" for the East Coast?? The company leaves after it's built the plant.Don't complain about the smell after its built, big business will control our politicians. Let me guess- it will be placed on land owned by relatives of powerful politicians. Aren't we tired of our politicians selling us short? We saw this when the big gas line went through Phoenix. It went all around the politicians land, until the citizens got involved. If citizens don't get involved and say NO, then they deserve the mess that's awaiting them.Do you really believe 72,000 cows & no severe problems? Phoenix citizens- you get what you deserve. At least read up on why St Lawrence county didn't want them. |

| Alex Zerbinos Phoenix Looking at this as a Phoenix resident, I see no reason to allow these plants to move in our area. We are suppose to be trying to clean up our homes not turn them into sewer plants. We are teaching are chidren to clean up the environment ,not harm or destroy it. What kind of example are we setting for them? Phoenix is not a rich town but in past we have had some tradgedies happen that were overcame and no espesially in the last twenty years or so the water is getting better, streets are improving, and we have been doing O.K. I think it would be wrong to except any proposal that has just been turned down by someone else. So let's make us and our children proud by doing what we're teaching them. Say No to these Ethanol Plants. |

type of operation is in the best interest of the community, irrespective
of the number of jobs or tax revenue
it may bring. I think the project is out of character with the
community and will negatively impact property values. From a
sustainability standpoint, I suspect smaller, local producers will have a
lesser carbon footprint
than a CAFO with a 300-mile distribution radius. This project will
distract us from attracting more suitable industries, and could if
implemented dissuade more progressive industries from locating here. |

touching a car door to go to work in the morning, or never having youre

such as the one considered for Oswego County. Ever |

| Dale Tomlinson Phoenix NY Reflections on the meeting with BION Technologies, Inc., representatives at Oswego State on 14 July 10: As a general observation, Mr. J. Kappel was the best speaker for Bion, which does not mean I accepted all he said. Dr. J. Morris was a bit too political in his manner; almost a Bill Clinton ?I feel your pain? schtick with his Tennessee drawl to impress us common folk how common he was also. Mr. D. Bassani ? who spoke last and appeared to me to be wishing he were somewhere else all evening ? was arrogant, almost taunting the audience, condescending, and it seemed he was looking for a fight. Factually, however, all these people are seriously challenged; they either do not really know what they are talking about, or at least any one of the three does not at certain times. First, Dr. Morris stated (in response to a question from the audience about a slide showing a bovine representation which stated that this animal emitted 360 Lbs./year of nitrogen) that it did not matter whether or not it was a dairy cow or beef cattle. However, later on, Mr. Bassani tried to tell us that dairy cows consumed and emitted 2.5 times as much as cattle, while trying to convince us that a 500-cow dairy herd currently operated in the county would be equivalent to (1) their 1250-cattle test operation in Pennsylvania and (2) would also emit as much as one of their five 14,400-cattle sites which would use their patented digestion technology for waste treatment. Also, Mr. Bassani, et. al., apparently dismissed such facts as: unlike a 500-cow dairy herd grazing on open pasture ? their operation would require feed being brought to confined cattle on a continuous basis, their waste being removed by truck (and liquids filtered in engineered wet lands), and cattle (600 per day overall, prorated to 120 per site) being brought in by truck to replace those slaughtered. They have not invented non-polluting trucks (or in the case of excrement and distillery grain ? the feed -- transport, leak- or crash-proof trucks), to my knowledge. Also, at the meeting, Dr. Morris pointed out that Bion?s digester technology would be heated to ensure it operates as it does in warmer climes; the impact of burning large amounts of fossil fuel to effect this was not explained, but is another fact that gives the lie to the ?closed-loop? pitch that Bion makes. They mentioned that they would pay some 2.5 million dollars annually in taxes, but that is really not known because a PILOT agreement might be considered. And, in any event, 2.5 million dollars will not go far when spent over the entire county, especially considering the damage to roads and infrastructure caused by hundreds of additional heavy truck sorties daily over our roads, and certainly will do nothing to cover any environmental damage done by their operation. As to this last point, when asked if Bion would post any bond or other such insurance fund to cover inadvertent damage or ? a question specifically asked ? for the loss of local livestock due to mandated destruction if one of their 72,000 animals contracts a contagious disease (he did not answer the question as to where they would procure cattle for finishing), Mr. Bassani simply said, ?No.? Never mind the mess left behind if their huge experiment fails and they walk away from it. In regards to the chances of that happening, consider this from Bion Technologies? 10-Q Report to the SEC, 5 March 2010: ??The Company has not generated revenues and has incurred net losses of approximately $1,312,000 and $1,779,000 during the years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and a net loss of approximately $2,227,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2010. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.? The last phrase expressing doubt about Bion?s being a ?going concern? also appeared in a 2005 auditor?s report. Based on the above history of exponentially-increasing losses, this company has no financial underpinning to carry out such a venture as they have proposed. Period. Finally, what about all the wonderful jobs that have been promised? It turns out that Bion comprises 8 people. That?s all. They do not have the intention or the capability of operating or overseeing any of this scheme themselves. This will all be done through subcontractors ? for the cattle sites; for the grain shipping; for the cattle, waste, and feed, and meat trucking; for the slaughterhouse operation; and for the engineering of man-made wetlands, waste treatment systems and lagoons, barns, ?buffer? crop areas, etc. Bion has no contractors lined up at this time ? none that they would name for us, certainly. How could they know all the employment plans of so diversified a set of unknown companies? (This is probably the reason that employment estimates have varied from the 600 range to the 300 range ? they are guessing.) Add to this their admission late in the meeting that they might not build their own ethanol plant but would ?partner? with the Sunoco operation just getting started in Fulton, and the number of jobs falls further. More to the point, the number of high-paying, skilled jobs falls precipitously. (Note also that the Sunoco plant was not engineered to burn animal waste for fuel, nor was it designed with the animal-waste-in and distillery-grain-out balance necessary to accommodate a 72,000 cattle in a ?closed-loop?, so this is purely speculative even from a technological point of view. Bion has no concrete plan as to how it will produce ethanol.) Here is the deal as I see it: Bion makes (or will try to make) money, has no liability, and few if any good jobs result from this exercise. Water pollution due to routine operation or accidents, adverse effects on wells near the cattle sites (such as lowering of local water tables), malodorous living conditions for residents within several miles of some sites, road damage, and less safety on our roads (remember, these trucks will have to transport cattle, feed, and waste all winter, every day) are all distinct possibilities; and no bond to make us whole should problems result. I do not see how anyone could believe this scheme has has any net benefits for Oswego County, at least with what has been presented to date. |

| Sara Bambino, Cicero Let's support our local family farmers and show that our central NY community is against the cruelty of factory farming! |
| Penny McCann Fulton NY This community needs a lot of things, but a slaughter house is absolutely not one of them. |
| Sybil Gouchie : Phoenix I am totally opposed to this slaughterhouse and wish to help spread the word and inform the public in any way. I am a small business owner in the Village of Phoenix (AM/PM Yoga Source) and also a homeowner on St Rt 264. I can post lawn signs or whatever else is needed. Please contact me and let me know what I can do. |
| Margaret Waters Oswego |
| Mary Paye Pennellville NY I
love where I live and love it just the way it is. I live and work in
Phoenix and do not want to be in a community that slaughters cattle
daily let alone the environmental impact! |
| Jessica Helm, Rocky Point No CAFOs for NY. |
| Deedee Dillingham, Liverpool I detest the thought of one of our cities slaughtering 600 cattle a day. I also detest infringing upon family farms. Factory farms are abysmal for the animals (and the environment), and we don't want one here. Folks are leaning toward food grown in their own community. Animals should be free to roam and not to be fed antibiotics and hormones, and consumers should be able to eat foods that are local. Although I'm a vegetarian, I support family farms and not the factories where the animals suffer so greatly before they land on the dinner table. |
| Kimberley Wituszynski Clay NY I am against this for humane reasons as well as evironmental. |
| Susan Huniford Pennellville NY I don't think that it is the right business for our area. I'm concerned about the local environment. I am not in favor of mass production of a food source. After watching documentaries regarding small farm production compared to large means of production of our food sources I am not convinced that this produces safe food for consumption. I have experienced recalls of beef that I have purchased from a large chain store
and it's scary to think that we may have been exposed to harmful
bacteria. I think that the Town of Schroeppel needs to better assess
it's need to raise tax revenue and at what cost these opportunities will impact our health and community. |

Cow diseases could run rampant and spread to our local farmers! Do we really want to take this chance. Not to mention it's and inhumane treatment of cows!!! When will the killing stop for the almighty dollar? Shame on us for the devistaion that we've already caused to our eco system, and enviroment by destroying our animal and plant life.

| Margaret Bocsor Phoenix NY At the public forum on July 14, 2010, the Bion representatives gave the impression that they will only build the plant and then someone else will operate it. Too many unanswered questions; they have no proven track record. There is serious risk in transporting animals into this area from around the country; this will pose a health threat to existing local livestock.

| Amy Burnette Syracuse, NY |
| Jackson Petsche, Syracuse Factory farming is a horribly cruel system based on capistalistic greed that needs to be abolished! |
| Matracia Powell, Phoenix understand that Bion plans to try out a new technique of harvesting
methane from cattle manure and using it to make ethanol energy, but this
only scratches the surface of problems involved with factory farming,
not even including the poor treatment of the animals. I strongly urge
you to think about this carefully and help protect our community. Thank you. |

(which provide good jobs and develop technologies that can actually help
humanity). If BION wants to do something good, how about raising
grass-fed beef that is actually reasonably good for the people that eat
it and isn't cruel to the animals? Why would we want to introduce problem waste streams into our area so that we can then use Bion's technology to deal with them, (and hope it works...)? Why would we want to encourage CAFO's, which are cruel to the animals and produce meat of questionable quality (hormones, anitbiotics, corn-feed based)? Let Bion implement their waste stream mitigation technology somewhere where a CAFO already exists. There are plenty of places, and we should be glad we don't have any around here. To the politicians, decision makers, and citizens, please think this throug |

| Ross MacFarland,Pennellville The board is(coincidentally)pushing to extend thier term limits INDEFINITELY.In light of the fact that they welcome bion into our community to contaminate our water,lower our housing values,and destroy our way of life,it is imperitive that we all show-up in November to vote this down.Otherwise,we will INDEFINITELY be stuck with this corrupt board.It is becoming more and more obvious that they have a"SPECIAL INTEREST"in this carbon credit scam.Is it also a coincidence that the board is also pushing for municiple water?We think not.The board is aware of all the agricultural waste water deragulations and loopholes that exempt bion from all liability.Again,we must vote this down or we will all be at the mercy of a board who is only looking out for themselves. |

| Sharon Gilbert- Fulton We do not live in the town of Schroeppel but this will affect us as well as we live in Oswego Co. and on Rte.6 where they will be trucking to the landfill.

| Viktoria Pennington Oswego with so many families in this region on well water systems, I find it disgusting that anyone would consider such a dangerous factory. Our ground water is precious and we cannot condone even one iota of risk to our water supply should Bion mismanage any of the waste from the slaughter of so many cattle a day. Do not allow this factory farm destroy this beautiful land and water. |

It will put the small farms out of business. As a nation, we already eat way too much meat. We do not need to encourage more of it. I am sure that BIOn does not care about the pain and suffering that these animals endure. Shame on the legislatures for approving this brutality. |

| Sean Lunny, Ithaca |

| Kenneth O'Brien Pennellville |
| carol money Brewerton besides the environment, people who work in slaughterhouses often end up with psychological problems |
| Katie Quaintance, Hannibal What this county needs to do is work on keeping businesses that are here and employing its residents currently vs. those that just want to borrow our land and destroy it for their personal lively hoods. Why not look at how our local agriculture industry can be improved vs. polluting the local environment. |
| Debbie Smith Pennellville NO deathanol plant!!!!! |
| Karen Dougher Liverpool I had no idea this was even a consideration. I know we all eat meat but who really wants to think about innocent animals being slaughter to put food on our tables. Not me |
| Charles Heckert, Phoenix |
| Joyce Urban Sharon Springs who or why would you want a death house in your neighborhood? |
| Dianna Seebaugh Center Moriches This barbarism needs to be halted now! |
| Linda Young, Liverpool This isn't just bad for the local people, it's bad for everyone in CNY.
It may generate tax revenue--but at what cost? So our children can
grow up to work at the local slaughterhouse? So that they can struggle
even more than we do for a dangerously polluted environment? So that
they can have yet another factory farm to show how uncaring we can be toward living creatures? Maybe we should plan field trips for our school children to show them this marvel of farming efficiency. Oswego County is known for many natural wonders, for hunting, fishing, historical sights. Now we can add "the biggest factory farm and slaughterhouse in the state!" What an honor! |

| Sharon Ouderkirk Fulton Do not want Factory Farming in our backyard. |
| Geri Aird, Fayetteville I was neighbor to dairy farmers
years ago I valued their hard work and the milk produced. However, the
barn flies were not welcome. They clung to the side of the house, came
in whenever family went in and out the doors...Here's a clip from Cornell Cooperative Extension for dairy farmers. If factory farming is set up, be prepared for fly invasion. Location, location, location: Flies seek out habitat that favors their survival. The most likely places to search for barn fly breeding? Think moist, not wet, organic matter. These conditions favor the microorganisms that fly larvae feed on. Too wet or too dry are not favorable. Conditions have to be just right for high fly potential. Calf rearing areas, near waterers and feed troughs, adult animal resting areas, maternity and hospital pens, manure traps, conveyor systems etc. Outside areas adjacent to barns prone to fly breeding include the water and feed troughs in the animal loafing yard, base of stored big bales, and edges of bunks or upright silos. Areas less conducive to fly breeding? |
| Laura Bortolin Fulton NY CAFOs are disgusting, cruel, and have a huge impact on the environment -- Please don't let this awful thing happen here. |
| Debbie Russell NO |
| Gary Russell Phoenix We have lived here for over 25 years. We raised our children here and now our grandchildren. We like it here and prefer to stay, but we are prepared to move to keep our family safe. |
| Kathy Strang, Pennellville The Carrier Dome seats 49,250. Can you imagine an operation that houses enough cows to fill the Dome one and a half times? All for the creation only 300 jobs? This is beyond frightening and every citizen of Oswego county should educate themselves about this project and the problems. The risks far outweigh the benefits. |
| Aug 14 |
| Alex Richards, Ithaca Absolutely not! Not only is this kind of business beyond cruel to the animals it will brutally be putting to death, as well as seriously detrimental to the environment, property values, air quality, roads (with all the trucks that will be going back and forth transporting these unfortunate animals), etc., it has also been documented that this type of employment causes marked increases in alcoholism, drug abuse, domestic abuse and violence in general within families and communities. No way! |
| Tom Razey- Pennellville There are too many risks (environmental, traffic, watershed,etc.) connected with this project. They claim that it is a "closed loop" system, but there are still way too many unanswered questions and challenges. Take this project somewhere else away from residential areas. |
| Pam Prince, Pennellville I am concerned about the smell and the value of my property. It's not a good fit for our area. |
| Laura Brown, Scotia The last thing NYS needs is another corporate farm to pollute the surrounding area. |
| Rachel Loy Phoenix NY |
| MJ Serfilippi Delmar |
| J SMITH phoenix we would like to have a sign for the property please |
| j&d smith, phoenix this town should put more stores for business, instead of killing animals--not a very smart move, let alone the smell, and our property value going down. whoever suggested this project i'm sure doesn't live around here, and if they do NOT A SMART MOVE! |
| George Libbey Fulton Will their generator set have enough Kvw to donate power to our schools in lie of taxes? |
| Nancy Rozelle, Queensbury I do not live in Oswego County but certainly wouldn't want a slaughterhouse in Warren County where I do live. What an awful idea! Factory farming is so very negative and disrepectful of living beings. These types of businesses are on the way out and allowing new businesses of their kind shows a poor outlook for the future. Why encourage something that's not wanted? There are so many positive ideas out there, there's no reason to make that kind of negative plan! Listen to the residents!! |

who actually work at these jobs. I can imagine that it is not a pretty

| Bob Kelly, Pennellville I grew up on a small dairy farm. I can't imagine how many trucks a day would be going in and out to feed 72,000 head of cattle, and then hauling out the butchered beef as well. What would they do, hire 300 illegal Mexicans to work there? |

We oppose to bringing in another huge plant so close to it and involving an enormous number of animals to deal with in a small community like Town of Schroeppel.

Let me guess- it will be placed on land owned by relatives of powerful politicians. Aren't we tired of our politicians selling us short? We saw this when the big gas line went through Phoenix. It went all around the politicians land, until the citizens got involved. If citizens don't get involved and say NO, then they deserve the mess that's awaiting them.Do you really believe 72,000 cows & no severe problems? Phoenix citizens- you get what you deserve. At least read up on why St Lawrence county didn't want them. |

| Alex Zerbinos Phoenix Looking at this as a Phoenix resident, I see no reason to allow these plants to move in our area. We are suppose to be trying to clean up our homes not turn them into sewer plants. We are teaching are chidren to clean up the environment ,not harm or destroy it. What kind of example are we setting for them? Phoenix is not a rich town but in past we have had some tradgedies happen that were overcame and no espesially in the last twenty years or so the water is getting better, streets are improving, and we have been doing O.K. I think it would be wrong to except any proposal that has just been turned down by someone else. So let's make us and our children proud by doing what we're teaching them. Say No to these Ethanol Plants. |

| James Paye, Pennellville I don't believe this
type of operation is in the best interest of the community, irrespective
of the number of jobs or tax revenue
it may bring. I think the project is out of character with the
community and will negatively impact property values. From a
sustainability standpoint, I suspect smaller, local producers will have a
lesser carbon footprint
than a CAFO with a 300-mile distribution radius. This project will
distract us from attracting more suitable industries, and could if
implemented dissuade more progressive industries from locating here. |

everything that is nearby? I ask you to consider this as you step out
youre front door and get you're mail from a urin soaked mail box or just
touching a car door to go to work in the morning, or never having youre
children play outside in their yard because its now contaminated. I
could go on but I think you get the picture. This is no place for the

such as the one considered for Oswego County. Ever |
| Maureen Fitzgerald San Francisco I'm an ex-Central New Yorker...still so impressed by the beauty of the land when I visit there. It sounds like Bion will give jobs, but at what cost to the community and environment? Family farms support families and communities. |

| Dale Tomlinson Phoenix NY Reflections on the meeting with BION Technologies, Inc., representatives at Oswego State on 14 July 10: As a general observation, Mr. J. Kappel was the best speaker for Bion, which does not mean I accepted all he said. Dr. J. Morris was a bit too political in his manner; almost a Bill Clinton ?I feel your pain? schtick with his Tennessee drawl to impress us common folk how common he was also. Mr. D. Bassani ? who spoke last and appeared to me to be wishing he were somewhere else all evening ? was arrogant, almost taunting the audience, condescending, and it seemed he was looking for a fight. Factually, however, all these people are seriously challenged; they either do not really know what they are talking about, or at least any one of the three does not at certain times. First, Dr. Morris stated (in response to a question from the audience about a slide showing a bovine representation which stated that this animal emitted 360 Lbs./year of nitrogen) that it did not matter whether or not it was a dairy cow or beef cattle. However, later on, Mr. Bassani tried to tell us that dairy cows consumed and emitted 2.5 times as much as cattle, while trying to convince us that a 500-cow dairy herd currently operated in the county would be equivalent to (1) their 1250-cattle test operation in Pennsylvania and (2) would also emit as much as one of their five 14,400-cattle sites which would use their patented digestion technology for waste treatment. Also, Mr. Bassani, et. al., apparently dismissed such facts as: unlike a 500-cow dairy herd grazing on open pasture ? their operation would require feed being brought to confined cattle on a continuous basis, their waste being removed by truck (and liquids filtered in engineered wet lands), and cattle (600 per day overall, prorated to 120 per site) being brought in by truck to replace those slaughtered. They have not invented non-polluting trucks (or in the case of excrement and distillery grain ? the feed -- transport, leak- or crash-proof trucks), to my knowledge. Also, at the meeting, Dr. Morris pointed out that Bion?s digester technology would be heated to ensure it operates as it does in warmer climes; the impact of burning large amounts of fossil fuel to effect this was not explained, but is another fact that gives the lie to the ?closed-loop? pitch that Bion makes. They mentioned that they would pay some 2.5 million dollars annually in taxes, but that is really not known because a PILOT agreement might be considered. And, in any event, 2.5 million dollars will not go far when spent over the entire county, especially considering the damage to roads and infrastructure caused by hundreds of additional heavy truck sorties daily over our roads, and certainly will do nothing to cover any environmental damage done by their operation. As to this last point, when asked if Bion would post any bond or other such insurance fund to cover inadvertent damage or ? a question specifically asked ? for the loss of local livestock due to mandated destruction if one of their 72,000 animals contracts a contagious disease (he did not answer the question as to where they would procure cattle for finishing), Mr. Bassani simply said, ?No.? Never mind the mess left behind if their huge experiment fails and they walk away from it. In regards to the chances of that happening, consider this from Bion Technologies? 10-Q Report to the SEC, 5 March 2010: ??The Company has not generated revenues and has incurred net losses of approximately $1,312,000 and $1,779,000 during the years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and a net loss of approximately $2,227,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2010. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.? The last phrase expressing doubt about Bion?s being a ?going concern? also appeared in a 2005 auditor?s report. Based on the above history of exponentially-increasing losses, this company has no financial underpinning to carry out such a venture as they have proposed. Period. Finally, what about all the wonderful jobs that have been promised? It turns out that Bion comprises 8 people. That?s all. They do not have the intention or the capability of operating or overseeing any of this scheme themselves. This will all be done through subcontractors ? for the cattle sites; for the grain shipping; for the cattle, waste, and feed, and meat trucking; for the slaughterhouse operation; and for the engineering of man-made wetlands, waste treatment systems and lagoons, barns, ?buffer? crop areas, etc. Bion has no contractors lined up at this time ? none that they would name for us, certainly. How could they know all the employment plans of so diversified a set of unknown companies? (This is probably the reason that employment estimates have varied from the 600 range to the 300 range ? they are guessing.) Add to this their admission late in the meeting that they might not build their own ethanol plant but would ?partner? with the Sunoco operation just getting started in Fulton, and the number of jobs falls further. More to the point, the number of high-paying, skilled jobs falls precipitously. (Note also that the Sunoco plant was not engineered to burn animal waste for fuel, nor was it designed with the animal-waste-in and distillery-grain-out balance necessary to accommodate a 72,000 cattle in a ?closed-loop?, so this is purely speculative even from a technological point of view. Bion has no concrete plan as to how it will produce ethanol.) Here is the deal as I see it: Bion makes (or will try to make) money, has no liability, and few if any good jobs result from this exercise. Water pollution due to routine operation or accidents, adverse effects on wells near the cattle sites (such as lowering of local water tables), malodorous living conditions for residents within several miles of some sites, road damage, and less safety on our roads (remember, these trucks will have to transport cattle, feed, and waste all winter, every day) are all distinct possibilities; and no bond to make us whole should problems result. I do not see how anyone could believe this scheme has has any net benefits for Oswego County, at least with what has been presented to date. |

| Jessica Helm, Rocky Point No CAFOs for NY. |
| Deedee Dillingham, Liverpool I detest the thought of one of our cities slaughtering 600 cattle a day. I also detest infringing upon family farms. Factory farms are abysmal for the animals (and the environment), and we don't want one here. Folks are leaning toward food grown in their own community. Animals should be free to roam and not to be fed antibiotics and hormones, and consumers should be able to eat foods that are local. Although I'm a vegetarian, I support family farms and not the factories where the animals suffer so greatly before they land on the dinner table. |
| Kimberley Wituszynski Clay NY I am against this for humane reasons as well as evironmental. |
| Susan Huniford Pennellville NY I don't think that it is the right business for our area. I'm concerned about the local environment. I am not in favor of mass production of a food source. After watching documentaries regarding small farm production compared to large means of production of our food sources I am not convinced that this produces safe food for consumption. I have experienced recalls of beef that I have purchased from a large chain store
and it's scary to think that we may have been exposed to harmful
bacteria. I think that the Town of Schroeppel needs to better assess
it's need to raise tax revenue and at what cost these opportunities will impact our health and community. |

they have to go through. These quotes say it best: "Life is as dear to
the mute creature as it is to man. Just as one wants happiness and fears
pain, just as one wants to live and not to die, so do other
creatures". "Not to hurt our humble brethren (the animals) is our first duty to them, but to stop there is not enough. We have a higher mission- to be of service to them whenever they require it. If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men.” Saint Francis of Assisi |

| Sujsan Wimmer Canastota NY I respectfully request this resolution be denied. It is an extremely inhumane treatment of animal; there are far too many factory farms
in the US now. It is not natural for an animal to be raised in a
factory setting. I refuse to eat meat from factory raised farms. We
have lost enough "family" farms as it is. It is all about greed, the
root of all evil. |
| Beverly Freytag Pennellville NY A farmer all my life, I feel this beef farm would be a liability, not an asset to our community. |
| Tom Albani Phoenix NY |
| : Greg Hamm Pennellville NY This was rejected in St. Lawrence County. The Gulf oil drilling disaster also had 100% guarantee of failure. |
| Masako Murakami Pennellville NY |
| gregory hamm pennellville NY the more research i do the more concerned i become. |
| Lisa Skardinski Jamesville Factory Farms are horrible places. Even if you take out the horrible treatment of the animals, it kills the environment, pollutes everything around it, and the sicknesses that come from them are far and wide. Most of all it puts the family farms out of business. |
| KATHY ALTER MUNNSVILLE |
| Felicity Brach Rochester Factory Farms & and any other places for killing animals for "food" is an outrage, and there are too many as it is. Stop eating animals, for crying out loud!! |
| LINDA HEIMBACH CENTRAL SQUARE IS THERE ONE OUNCE OF COMPASSION ANYWHERE FOR THE ANIMALS THAT WILL SUFFER NEEDLESSLY??????? |
| Anneka Herre Syracuse NY |
| Sandra Milner Syracuse NY NO No No NO!!! Factory farms are bad business. Produces bad meat - how can it be good if it is from an animal that lives so unnaturally and unhealthily, pollutes the area, puts family farms out of business. NO NO NO NO!! |
| donna wills Clay NY |
| Lori Gleason Rome NY Just like the Gulf - if there's an accident at this type of facility,

| Rita Anderson Mexico NY |
| Naomi Chouinard Minoa NY we need to get away from overdone factory farms that would have a negetive impact on the world and state.we need to eat a more vegetarian based diet that doesnt exploit animals and our enviroment. |
| Sue Tupper Liverpool NY Sure, why not dump on CNY? We're nothing to these big agri-business monsters. As long as they keep raking in a profit, why would they care if some bozos in working-class CNY take the fall? Polluted air, water and land is hardly their concern, as long as it's not happening in their own back yard. The horrors of these "farms" have been being uncovered more and more. This link explains a lot more than you'd probably want to know. http://www.farmsanctuary.org/issues/factoryfarming/ |
| Derek Pilon Liverpool NY This is not what Central New York is about. Witness the destruction of other communities that the factory farms in other areas has caused. Big business big-wigs living in their luxury homes
FAR AWAY from CNY don't care about the ruin of our area, but we will do
all we can to protect our homes here. We cannot allow our homes (and
our childrens' homes) to become their profit-making dumping ground. |
| Lana Van |
| Georgette Vanslyke Syracuse NY this is absolutely outrageous. it is simply about the almighty dollar and this project will do more harm than it will good in the environment and the people that will be living near and/or ingesting the animal products raised in this factory farm setting. You may be increasing jobs there by opening a slaughterhouse but you will be increasing healthcare costs with all of potential hazards or an operation of this magnitude. Its absolutely outrageous and barbaric |
| Janelle Nolan Fulton NY This community will not benefit from this factory. |

| : Dolores: Darley Phoenix My concerns are many - the smell of a slaughterhouse, aquifers, traffic, property values. We are paying almost 11,000.00 in total taxes for a home that has some value .What would this company do to the resale value of our home. This would DESTROY the community.We moved here for the rural home experience not the have an industrial farm in our back yards |
| Gary Grassman Phoenix NY where exactly do they want this slaughterhouse? |
| Jamie Bort Fayetteville NY I am diametrically opposed to Bion moving to Oswego County.
I feel that their sole concern will be to make money whereas our
concerns lie with the environment, quality of life of our neighbors,
and the future of Oswego County. Thank you. |

-------------------------
| Noreen Patterson Phoenix NY I do not see how the increased number of low paying jobs for the 72,000 cattle Bion project will help our local economy. I believe this project will lower property values. |
| Janet: Allen Syracuse NY |
| Helen Reddout Outlook WA |
| C. Robert Patterson Phoenix NY Should this project move forward it would certainly decrease property values, endanger our water supply, increase taxes to support infrastructure and tax our social welfare system due to the influx of low wage workers. |

| Dawn Moyer Pennellville NY |
| Heidi Kadick Syracuse NY |
| Lenore Rapalsk Liverpool NY This is not a suitable project for any county. If St. Lawrence (a very poor county historically) and Oswego County have rejected this slaughterhouse, then why in heaven's name is the Town of Schroeppel accepting it? |
| David : Kapell Jamesville NY There is no need for factory farms of any kind anywhere. Meat raised on hormones and antibiotics is inherently unsafe to eat |

| Leyana Dessauer Syracuse NY Factory farms are cruel and inhumane to animals, unhealthy for the humans who eat them or drink their milk, horrible for the environment, and disastrous for family farmers who are working hard and struggling financially. This must nit go through |
| CG Varno Skaneateles NY We have enough negative karma that is bringing down this world. To
torture and imprison more animals..just because we can...is the most
heinous thing we can do, besides the irreparable injury to the
environment. Gandhi said that the moral fiber of a state is measured
by how one treats its animals and Schweitzer said that until we include
all creatures in our circle of compassion we will never find peace.
Stop this abomination and greed. Don't you see from the oil spill what
greed does to the world. We are headed to hell in a hand basket.
Please don't allow this horrible place where living, breathin creatures
do not have any life to breath good air, sunshine and green grass. |
| Ernest Muzquiz Syracuse NY |

| Pamm Mosey Baldwinsville NY |

| Gerald Kahn Pennellville NY Are you people insane? Do you not care about the beauty and peace in
our RURAL township? Have you been paid off or something? I strongly protest this proposal!!! Gerald Kahn TAX PAYER and resident of Schroeppel. |
| Tari Weston Phoenix NY We don't have enough animals why would anyone want a slaughter house here! |
| Debbie Rose-Walter Tully NY It is written in a United
Nations 2005-06 report, that these animal factories aka CAFO's contribute more methane causing more global warming than automobiles. It is no common sense whatsoever to think of this or want to construct this monstroucity. I say a big NO! |
| Kristin Mosher Syracuse NY |
| Gerald Lotierzo Baldwinsville NY |
| Douglas Gray Schenectady As a former resident of Oswego Cty I strongly oppose the Bion project. |
| Mike Isabell Pennellville NY not in my back yard! I do not want the traffic,I do not want the night time activity,I do not want migrent workers . and for shit polatitions representing schroeppel as my rep. an even laoder not here not in my back yard. my name is mike isabell and this well not happen in the town of schroeppel. |
| Byron Norelius Syracuse NY I just don't want to have to question whether my local beef purchase is
coming from a mass-production facility... but I will question it and
will only buy beef from local family farmers (as I currently do). |
| Cynthia L. Davis Syracuse NY I am Oswego County born and now live in Onondaga County but encourage you to vote down this plan. Factory management of animal production
can bring risks similar, but not ins cale, to the oil in the Gulf, due
to the potential for poor management in order to increase production.
the "Big Box" farming concept is an unholy alliance,
between corporate plans and the lack of care for animals. It is not
the same as Walmart replacecing local, generationals tores, but there
are similarities, exceot that Walmart didn't cause the degree of environmental pollution that factory or "big box" farming will/can to our beautiful environment in Oswego County, that you are the stewards of. |
| Scott Moyer Pennellville NY what will be next!!! |
| Debra DeSocio Fayetteville NY Stop the animal factory in Oswego County. |
| Nancy Camorati Cleveland NY Does anyone really want to live next to one of these facilities. If you would not, then don't visit this debacle on your fellow citizens. |

And just to make money. IT's cruel and unhealthy for both animals and people. |
| DONNA TUPPER Phoenix NY The devastating impact on the community and the inhumane treatment of these animals - is not worth the any tax money the Town of Schroeppel will recieve. |
| RUSSELL TUPPER Phoenix NY |
| Julia: Tupper Phoenix NY |

| Margaret Spittler Colden NY |
| Zach Cuipylo Auburn Ny |
| Robin Yager Blossvale NY |
| Janice Wilson Parish NY Please don't let this happen. Having lived in Colorado for many years, I have seen (and smelled), first-hand, the aftermath of cattle yards - the stench, polluted water and tons of "fertilizer" are not ever worth this assault on the environment. The brutal jobs it generates only devalues our rural ethics and fowls our relatively pristine land. (Did I fail to mention the type of people that will be drawn to our area who can stand to do the work in these places?) What people won't do to make money. |
| Tyler Smart Pennellville NY I strongly discourage our elected town officials from allowing this to happen. |
