PLANS to develop a $5 million biodiesel plant in Goulburn capable of producing 12 million litres a year are awaiting finalisation of subdivision issues.
Developer Paul Menere, of City and Industrial Group, said once the owner of the land solved those issues, a development application to construct a 600 square metre Colourbond factory and eight stainless steel tanks able to store 800,000 litres of biodiesel, would be lodged with Goulburn Mulwaree Council.
Mr Menere, who is no stranger to Goulburn developments, said environmental responsibility was fuelling his aim to establish four factories throughout Australia, the Goulburn plant being "the centrepiece".
"Because Goulburn is on the highway and main rail link, the city is perfectly positioned for a plant such as this," Mr Menere told the Post.
