MidAmerica's potential nuclear project town hall meeting

You are invited to attend a public meeting on this topic

Tuesday, March 26th 6:30 p.m.

New Wilton Community Center Across from Jr-Sr High School

1215 Cypress Street Wilton, IA

In November of last year, MidAmerican Energy held a private meeting with owners of land adjacent to a proposed site for a new nuclear or natural gas power plant southeast of Wilton. It was closed to the public and the news media. As people who live in the community within the evacuation zone of this plant, we distributed a petition asking for the same courtesy to have an opportunity to see MidAmerican's presentation and ask our questions. The petition was sent to MidAmerican with 275 signatures from Wilton, Muscatine, Durant and surrounding communities. MidAmerican has agreed to send a representative to our meeting.

MidAmerican will give a presentation on the proposed plant and audience members will be able to ask questions and make comments. Representatives from the Muscatine, Cedar, and Scott County Board of Supervisors will be present. Elected officials will share their comments.

Seating is limited. We recommend that you arrive early. Doors will open at 6:00 p.m.

For those unable to attend, the meeting will be recorded by Muscatine Community College for rebroadcast on Muscatine Power and Water Digital TV Channel 9. Check their schedule for date and time.

Hosted by S.A.F.E. Saving America's Farmground and Environment
