This project is a long range <br /> plan for bettering the environment. <br /> The City of Elk River would be an excellent choice for the Sustainable <br /> City Showcase. The Elk River Resource Recovery Facility, located in the <br /> • City of Elk River, is a great example of a vision to protect the environment <br /> and save energy which has developed into a viable operating project <br /> where municipal solid waste is converted to power plant fuel, and ferrous <br /> metal is recycled. This facility is available for tours for gaining <br /> understanding of state of the art waste disposal. <br /> In addition, the corridor between Anoka and Saint Cloud has been <br /> identified as a high growth area through the next decade. Elk River, <br /> located neatly within that corridor, will have high construction activity and <br /> population growth well into the future. This would be an ideal attribute for <br /> the Sustainable City Showcase. <br /> For those reasons, NRG Energy, Inc. supports the City of Elk River for the <br /> Sustainable City Showcase for the "Energy Alley" project. <br /> Since(ly, <br /> ....i <br /> It_ e://j( <br /> Ron Will <br /> Vice President Operations & Engineering <br />
