We have been following with

dismay the efforts of the Williams Company in their attempt to build a

similar, though much larger plant in South Fulton, virtually on the Fayette

County line.

We feel compelled to sound

the alarm to you folks living in Fayette, before it is too late to stop

this monster. We live within three-quarters of a mile of both Tenaska

and Dynegy, and here is how it really is.

These plants are loud, they

are nasty, they sound just like the airport, they are terribly offensive,

they smell bad, and the industrial lighting they use has taken away our

stars. They have taken away our peace and quiet, and they have done a

very effective job of degrading what used to be a nice, rural neighborhood.

It is not too late for you

folks to work to stop this. If the Fulton County Commission is looking

at a tax gold mine with this $500-million mega-industrial complex, Fayette

is going to get the shaft. More accurately, if Fulton gets the car, you

folks in Fayette will get the tailpipe.

All of the severe negative

impacts that we now must live with do not respect county lines. You will

get the increased air pollution, operating noise, construction disruptions,

industrial lighting, dust, odor, and negative impacts of increased electromagnetic

energy, and you will get no benefits. None.

The folks who want to build

this plant would like very much to pretend you simply don't exist.

The Williams people are trying

very hard to make this sound like peaches and cream, but it just ain't

so. We know. We have heard it all before, and we are living with the reality

of it now.
