MAGNESIUM PROJECT SUPPORTERS GATHER 500 PETITION SIGNATURES
Supporters of the proposed magnesium project south of Deming have gathered over 500 signatures in support of the project, according to Carol Brewka, Community Relations Volunteer Coordinator. The supporters are signing pledges of support for the multi-million dollar magnesium quarry and processing plant at the Peru Mill Industrial Park. An application has been submitted to the Bureau of Land Management and the state of New Mexico to open the quarry and the processing plant, and that application is currently under review. The project is expected to create 500 to 5,000 jobs in the Deming area. The project’s Managing Member, David Tognoni of Elephant Butte, has conducted several public meetings to educate the public about the project. The petition drive continues and citizens can add their names to the petition. “This is the kind of project we need in Deming,” said Brewka. “It will bring a very environmentally clean industry to our area and provide thousands of good paying jobs. We have had great support so far and anyone who wants to sign up in support is welcome." For those who would like to sign the petition, stop by Brewka Orthodontics, at 710 S. Gold Avenue in Deming, and sign the petition in the lobby. For information, please call 303-408-2222. |
