I remember seeing the whole sky lit up from the intensity of the fire as I was driving down Greentree Rd. from Lebanon. Two or three miles away at my house they said it blew the curtains inward.]]> Thu, 15 Nov 2007 16:40:37 +0000 http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=240&PID=583&title=will-middletown-monroe-explode#583 Will Middletown Monroe Explode? : Yes, to both of you.

Yes, to both of you. A new processing plant is in the works. Monroe fought it with much dispute, won, and they moved on. Although if you look at the links highlighted words (links) above there was a Major explosion that occurred at one of their plants here recently. Very Large scale. It would have the potential to wipe out much of surrounding areas.]]> Thu, 15 Nov 2007 16:33:23 +0000 http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=240&PID=582&title=will-middletown-monroe-explode#582 Will Middletown Monroe Explode? : From what I gather John Crist... http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=240&PID=581&title=will-middletown-monroe-explode#581 Author: arwendt

From what I gather John Crist is taking about a new processing plant.
 
It is a bit confusing as the companies name is "The Rockies Express Pipeline."

Ok...what am I missing here?....Don't we already have a pipeline (natural gas that is) that runs over to the east side of 75 by the Marathon refinery that is out there?  
I'm not being sarcastic, I'm just kind of confused here.  I know that pipeline goes underneath the expressway just south of exit 32 and just above Berns....so it must come close to AK Steel.  It's been there as long as I lived here and I live right beside one of those feeder lines. 
 
Was this in addition to that line?  Are they looking for more capacity to "refine" or transport more to this area? 
 
Thanks for any information posted back.

Here is some information where Monroe tried to keep the gas pipeline out of Monroe.

The Rockies Express Pipeline is looking for another place to locate, partially due to the efforts of Steve Urso and his band of Voice Posters.

Can Monroe & Middletown Survive the Outcome?

A little over a month ago Monroe Residents fought tooth and nail to petition down the New Construction of a Gas Processing Plant built by The Rockies Express Pipeline. Much to resident hopes it was petitioned down by Mary Detcher, Steven Urso and a faithful band of Main Street Monroe Voice Posters. Monroe Residents say they have enough questions from the TEPPCO worries.

Although, The Rockies Express Pipeline has purchased land North of Monroe just approximately within 150 or so feet within Middletown City limits. Monroe residents are still scared of the plausible outcomes of an explosion that could rock the Northern half of City limits which entail a medium sized business a newly built residential neighborhood and older existing residents on Garver Rd. Not to Mention the newer business park located around the proposed Station in Middletowns City Limits. They are sitting back questioning Middletowns logic in letting them acquire the recently purchased land. They are asking; Does Middletown care about the outcome of a possible explosion? Are Middletowns City employees concerned at all about the possible risks? Have the bridges of Middletown and Monroe been burnt for good?

Citizens of Monroe are truly concerned but have heard nothing in reply or concern from Middletowns City Commission.

Personally, I would have to agree that this is a true Money situation for whatever city is willing to let them construct their Station. There is serious potential for money to be made and taxes to be had.

But, at whos hands will the lives of innocent citizens be in if such an occurrence should happen?

I encourage the City of Middletown Citizens to look into this further and see just exactly what is going to be built.

As I have said, Monroe Citizens fought tooth and nail to ensure this didnt get into Monroes area but is it Still too Close?

Ask yourselves this, Is this really needed in your town? Are innocent lives really worth the risk of tax money? As well, if there is a problem from this newly proposed and soon to be built site. What plausable happenings would result from all the gas lines that AK Steel has running underneath its business and surroundings? Cry

For a little more information. Dead
