Editor:

I am writing to inform the citizens of Darke County regarding a “Public Notice” posted in The Daily Advocate, a publication of Civitas Media, LLC, on January 27 regarding a draft Permit to Install (PTI) and a draft Permit to Operate (PTO) a Concentrated Animal Feeding Facility (CAFF) for swine finishing on Arnold Road under the name Arnold Road Farm. According to the notice, Rodney Drew, Richard Drew, Ric Drew and Randall Drew are the applicants.

An open house and public meeting will be held Monday, Feb. 29 at the Darke County Commissioners office, 520, South Broadway, Greenville. The open house will begin at 6:30 p.m. and the public meeting will start at 7.

Interested parties including these concerned with the future of the City of Greenville and Greenville Township should attend this meeting. This currently proposed facility may not be next to you, but you may be impacted by a similar project in the future.

Please come with oral and/or written concerns as suggested in the public notice.

Sincerely,

Daniel S. Berger. M.D.

Greenville
