Tupelo preparing for Toyota
Here's the story from the Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal.
Back home, Governor Beebe was asked about a report released yesterday by the American Lung Association, which gave Crittenden County an "F" for ozone pollution. Crittenden County was a chief competitor for the Toyota plant that ultimately went to Tupelo, and air quality was listed as the main obstacle for the Arkansas location. The governor says that the issue shouldn't be a reason against landing a large industry to the area, especially now that the EPA has said a court ruling won't hurt efforts to address smog in the area.
