A green ammonia plant, planned for the Robstown and Calallen area has a lot of people talking.
Last week residents in that area expressed their concerns on social media after finding out an ammonia plant would be coming to the area.
Yvette Villalobos, a Robstown resident said she is opposed to this project because of the dangers it can cause to the community.
“We have to state our concerns, are they going to actually take precautions on these things, if something leaks and something will, you know, something is bound to happen, are they going to have something set in place to take care of it?” Villalobos said. “We do not want to have our economy rising at the cost of our citizens and our community, so it is time that we fight and we stand against that.”
Villalobos, and other citizens said the toxins and chemicals would be harmful for those in the community.
Avina Clean Hydrogen, who has filed as Nueces Green Ammonia, LLC, is planning to build the project on the Southwest corner of County Road 1889 and FM 46.
