WI DNR Approves Air Permits for North Prairie Productions

EVANSVILLE, WI – November 29, 2006 – A proposed biodiesel facility in Evansville moved one step closer to groundbreaking this week with the announcement that the Wisconsin DNR has approved the air permits required for construction and operation of the facility. Such air permits are issued subsequent to the state DNR making a comprehensive and site-specific examination of possible emissions that might arise from any proposed industrial development.

North Prairie Productions, LLC, intends to build a 45 million gallon per year biodiesel plant on land purchased in Evansville. “The permit application was very closely reviewed by the state in this case due to its being one of the first – and certainly the largest – biodiesel manufacturing facilities in the state,” said Bob Karls, Executive Director of the Wisconsin Soybean marketing Board. Karls pointed to the quick result as good news for the state’s emerging biodiesel industry. “The permit approval process took just over 70 days from start to finish, which is remarkably quick turnaround for projects of this size. We applaud the state’s effort in working closely with North Prairie to close on this task and clear the way for the construction of this biodiesel facility in Evansville. It’s a testament to both the management of North Prairie and the DNR that they have managed to work so efficiently in keeping this biodiesel project on a fast track for Evansville.”

With the air permit in place, North Prairie Productions is expected to become even more closely focused upon acquiring investor equity as the last hurdle before groundbreaking can occur. The company requires $25 million in investment equity to commence construction and just recently announced they are over halfway to meeting that objective. An aggressive schedule of informational meetings targeting potential investors throughout Wisconsin have been posted on their website, and company spokesperson Jeff Pieterick is optimistic for success. He points to the acquisition of the air permit and a recent resurgence in subscriptions that have pushed the equity drive past the $13 million mark as indication that everything is “full steam ahead for the Evansville project.”

“We’ve had terrific response from Wisconsin investors, particularly from the farm sector. With a successful harvest wrapping up, we are receiving an increasing number of calls for information and for equity subscriptions.

“We look forward to a successful completion of the equity drive, and anxiously await groundbreaking and the construction of Wisconsin’s largest biodiesel entry to date in this state’s renewable biofuels industry.”
