Protection of forest ecosystems is a critical concern related to the development of a biomass fueled power plant to serve the Gainesville Community. The Regional Utilities Committee (RUC), working with staff, an advisory group of professionals involved in the forest industry, consultants, and concerned citizens have developed a plan to help assure protection of forest ecosystems. The key elements of this plan are minimum standards that assure that industry best management practices are followed for any fuel acquired for the proposed power plant, and a financial incentive plan to reward growers that invest in superior forest management practices as certified by selected independent certification programs. | Discussed | |
