Titan eyes North Carolina environment bill

摘要

The North Carolina. House of Representatives has voted to approve the second reading of a bill that could help development projects receiving public incentives to bypass portions of a required state environmental review. The bill, introduced by Democratic Senator R C Soles of Tabor City, is a direct response to a May 2G10 ruling by a Wake Superiour Court that Titan America, an international company offered state and local incentives to build a cement plant in New Hanover County, had to supply a full environmental review. Titan and the state argued that the review was not required.
