USA: no vote on last-minute cement plant legislation
It looks as if Titan America’s plans for a new cement plant in Castle Hayne will continue – at least for now. North Carolina senators postponed taking action on a bill that could have forced Titan America to undergo an extensive environmental review.
Two coastal senators, Julia Boseman and Carolyn Justice, inserted the legislation into a bill intended to regulate hot water heaters.
Other senators say they were blindsided by the legislation and won’t vote on it.
