So, as a grateful ‘product’ of the state system, I begin the role of caucus co-chair with a sincere interest of keeping our institutions strong and accessible to future generations.” The caucus primarily consists of PASSHE alumni and/or House members in whose districts PASSHE schools reside. “It is an honor to be asked to serve in this capacity, especially with the Indiana University of Pennsylvania in my district,” added Struzzi, R-Indiana. “PASSHE is adapting to the changing needs of students and the workforce, while maintaining a high-quality and affordable education.

ReStream Energy will use the funds to develop a manufacturing facility in Jessup Borough that will convert cellulosic waste into diesel fuel and biochar for the agricultural industry. “I’ve always insisted that energy development and the protection of our environment don’t need to be opposing concepts,” said Mullins, D-Lackawanna. “This project will divert waste from landfills, produce diesel fuel domestically, and create local jobs; and it will do so without producing harmful emissions. At this moment when concerns over our environment and fuel prices are at an all-time high, these are the type of innovative projects we must be supporting and I’m proud to have advocated for these funds.” ReStream Energy – in coordination with the Scranton Lackawanna Industrial Building Company, the economic development arm of the Greater Scranton Chamber of Commerce – will use the funding to develop a manufacturing facility to process cellulosic waste that currently gets transported to landfills in the region. This facility will use a green gasification process that produces virtually no emissions or other environmental consequences. The facility will also generate renewable diesel fuel and biochar for the agricultural market. The facility Read more
