Century Construction has completed clearing and grubbing; placed the geo-grid and fabric across the site; brought the site to grade level; and installed drainage structures prior to completion of final rough grading.
The plant is BlueFire’s first commercial facility, which will utilize green and wood wastes as feedstock for the production of about 19 million gallons of ethanol per year.
BlueFire CEO Arnold Klann said the company is currently working on multiple pathways for financing including a pending loan guarantee application with the US Department of Agriculture.
