On April 8, 2025, TteS Membership and Staff were invited to a private engagement session at MSG to learn more about the proposed 7Mile Renewable Fuels Facility. Two sessions were held, each featuring a 30-minute presentation followed by open discussion. The project team shared details about regulatory processes, environmental assessments, and expected community benefits, and addressed questions from members. The event created space for meaningful dialogue and allowed participants to raise additional questions, which will continue to be addressed online for transparency and follow-up. Thank you to all that attended.

Two identical presentations were held to accommodate different schedules.

To encourage engagement, attendees were invited to RSVP and submit questions in advance, as no questions were taken during the event. Virtual participation was also available for those unable to attend in person. This event was well attended both in person and online.
