Silverado ready to 'fuel' Choctaw County plans

Silverado Green Fuel's plan to utilize lignite coal mined in Choctaw County to produce an alternative fuel source became deemed as way to secure energy for the future by State dignitaries.
Governor Haley Barbour and Mississippi Representative Roger Wicker were among those serving as guest speakers during the Silverado Green Fuel (SGF) groundbreaking ceremony at the Red Hills Ecoplex in Choctaw County.
Key players involved in orchestrating the Green Fuel project, including Choctaw County, Choctaw County Economic Development Foundation, Mississippi Development Authority, and Silverado Green Fuel Inc., came together on Monday, April 9 to begin development of the first low-rank-coal-water fuel facility in the United States.
The Choctaw County Board of Supervisors began working with the Silverado Corporation and the Mississippi Development Authority on the clean coal- green fuel project approximately two years prior to the groundbreaking ceremony.
According to both Congressman Wicker and Governor Barbour, Silverado's plans to build a low-rank-coal-water fuel facility will lead to providing clean-coal energy security for the United States.
Before introducing Governor Barbour, Wicker stated that the U.S. and in particular Mississippi has an abundance of lignite and coal that holds the potential to serve as energy source for over 300 years.
"Silverado knows what it is doing. This corporation is developing cutting edge state of the art technology that will lead the United States into the next phase of producing energy," said Wicker.
Barbour said he is committed to working towards a secure energy future for Mississippi and the U.S. He explained, upon taking office he began supporting industries dedicated to establishing energy alternatives for the U.S. During his term as Governor, numerous industries broke ground on Mississippi soil to work towards producing reliable fuel and energy alternatives.
Barbour named off the several energy developments within Mississippi, including the Bunge-Ergon Ethanol facility in Vicksburg, ChevronTexaco Pascagoula Refinery's increased production, and Grand Gulf Nuclear Station's request to build a second reactor, which along with SGF project will work to provide the U.S. with a secure energy future.
President of Silverado Green Fuel, Garry Anselmo, agreed with Barbour's points, saying, "We have long been dependent on outside sources for oil, but in the future the U.S will be able to produce oil at $ 15 per barrel. This process is no longer just a dream, and it is about to become a reality."
Gray Swoope, Mississippi Development Authority Executive Director, explained it is to the States and Choctaw County's advantage to utilize and God given natural resources as sources for economic growth and development.
"Choctaw County has taken inventory of its assets and used those assets to thrive economically through the Red Hills Coal Mine and will continue to utilize that resource with the Silverado Green Fuel project," said Swoope.
Utilization of the abundant resource will also lead to job production for Choctaw County, which is now closer to economic security rather than economic stagnation, with the reopening of Ackerman Forge, the once closed steel mill, continued growth at Hardwire, and the SGF project.
Initially a total of 45 jobs will be created for a minimum of ten years through the SGF deal, with agreement to show preference to Choctaw job applicants when two or more candidates are equally qualified for the position.
According to Thomas Higgins, President of the Choctaw County Board of Supervisors, he and his fellow district supervisors felt it was important that the added employment opportunities benefit the people of Choctaw County.
He said, "The addition of Silverado Green Fuel to the County is a two-fold benefit for the community. It will add to the continuing economic growth of the County and create local jobs for local people."
The ripple effect of development will lead to jobs for contractors and increased business for local merchants. SGF agreed it would seek local cost competitive supplies for use in construction of the low-rank-coal-water fuel facility.
Anselmo expects to begin construction on the facility in before or no later than July of 2007.
The next phase in the construction will include clearing the 14-acre site that the facility will make as its home in the Red Hills Ecoplex. Choctaw Board of Supervisors will advertise for contractors to clear the site once environmental clearance is granted on the site.
