Happy 2010! Well 2009 was a good one and I'm hoping 2010 is better.
So what's news in Presidio? We'll how about plans for a solar-powered sewage treatment plant! Normally news about such a place focuses on how it overflowed, or why Presidio originally built evaporation ponds that are uphill from town. Well, come 2010 Presidio will have a brand new facility, and we're just now hearing that it will be powered by solar panels. I don't think I'll plan on hanging out there to sing praises to Ra (Utopia album, 1975), but altenative energy rocks! In addition because Presidio will be utilizing solar power, we will be eligible to recieve credits and incentives to expand this type of electrical generation.
Evidently, there are other projects being proposed to utilize solar energy locally, as well. One thing's for sure: we got lots of sun! I don't think it's quite windy enough here to do wind power, but one thing's for sure: we got lots of sun!
