    I can see the building from my front door on Ridge Road without the stacks. I am on the same aquifer as they are.

    This should have never happened! Elected officials work for the people and got blindsided by officials that are supposed to have the peoples best interest but find money is more important than lives! Turn this train around and send them back to Denmark! Let them pollute their own country!

    Representatives are to act on the best interest of the people. The greatest concern of the people is preserving our kids well-being. Rockwool is bad for our well-being. Please act in our best interest!

    This county was my first home. I love it. Don't poison Jefferson County residents, wildlife and soil. The health of all is precious.

    I was planning a move to Shepherdstown West Virginia until I found about Rock Wool coming to the area. When I was exploring the area I met 2 current residents that said they would be leaving if Rock Wool was allowed to come to the area.

    This location makes no sense. It was a bad decision but it’s not too late to make it right. Do the right thing for people that pay taxes not for some individuals bottom line or because some Politician is doing a favor for someone. Enough politics! This is location puts lives at risk unnecessarily

    The US exports toxic factories to Mexico and Indonesia to evade EPA. So is EPA do weak that now the US is the toxic dump ground for the EU?

    I feel like it's my right not to be exposed to heavy emissions and cancer causing pollution in the air. This always has a detrimental long-term effect on the surrounding area, and is hard to reverse. One thing I love about living here is the clean air, but the cement factory in Martinsburg is ugly enough, and it's not like that's a job for ME. I'm not about to go work at a cement factory because I'm not a dude. So these jobs are for men, not mothers and daughters. We are being left out in the debate. We are being ignored because JOBS how about a job that creates growth and produces more than pollution and waste. Invest in alternative energy, lead the way to a brighter future for generations. Its as if people forgot that the future still exists, we haven't trashed it all completely as a self-destructive race. I see this endless race for jobs at the expense of climate to be far more destructive to the economy and jobs in the future to be completely honest. The more money invested in destructive and less-economically sustainable projects the less we have to work with.

    Please don't harm our environment! We must protect the native plant and wildlife species! Birds have very delicate respiratory systems....they would suffer greatly.

    A hemp plant would be just as profitable and would be cleaner for the environment.
