Energy company, EDL, is dialing back its commissioning schedule at its new renewable natural gas plant in Oberlin, off Hill Creek Drive, following numerous complaints from residents primarily centered around noise.
“We have not performed our expectations,” EDL North America CEO Richard DiGia told residents during an Oct. 2 Oberlin City Council Meeting. “We’ve failed you. We’ve failed ourselves. And so, this I look as a reset.” EDL said in a statement, “Making changes to our commissioning plan is the right thing to do at this time to ensure we meet that commitment in Oberlin. We recognize the facility has been loud and share our neighbor's frustrations.”“It was good to hear somebody come out and say, ‘Yes, we made a mistake. Yes, we have problems. And yes, we want to help you,’” said Helen Mittler, who lives near the plant.
Joshua Brown said, “It’s a big concern for me as a first-time homeowner veteran. This is basically my nest egg. Any value that this takes from my house is basically stealing from me. It’s stealing my equity. It’s stealing opportunity.”
