Appropriations Request

Town of Candor Biodiesel Facility Project

Amount Requested: $750,000

Candor, NC

The Project will include a Biodiesel Fuel Production Facility, a warehouse facility, and a multi-story office complex. The production unit will utilize sugar cane to produce Biodiesel fuel. The facility will utilize train cars to move product in and out of the facility. The Town of Candor will have to install a sewer lift station on site to pump wastewater to nearest available lift station on Cole Rd., approximately 1.3 miles away. This will require 4” force main line between stations. The Town will have to accommodate railway guidelines when installing water and sewer lines beneath the surface. This will require extra cost to protect the integrity of the railroad and Town lines. The water line size required for fire protection is still undetermined and the cost of installation will be based upon placement of line tap as pressure requires. This project is a green project. It will create jobs, an alternative fuel source, and tax revenue on the local, state, and federal levels. The tax revenue will help keep taxes down for the local residents which puts more money in their pockets and the local economy.
