The Denali animal processing sludge tank located on J Highway, 1 mile west of Wentworth near Walleye Road, has applied for a new permit to build a new sludge tank. I have attached a link with information for anyone who wants to write to Missouri Department of Natural Resources (by December 1st) to voice their concerns and opposition. The greater the number of responses the greater the impact. In your correspondence please list their permit MO-0140953.

Denali Water Solutions LLC applied for authorization to either discharge to waters of the state, or to operate a no-discharge wastewater treatment facility.

With the possibility of severe thunderstorms this afternoon into tonight, be weather aware and have an action plan. Determine ahead of time where you will take shelter when a tornado warning is issued.
Storm cellars and basements provide good protection from a tornado. If underground shelter is unavailable, go to an interior room or hallway on the lowest floor of your home or office. Stay clear from windows, doors, and outside walls. Go to the center of the room and stay away from the corners because debris flows into them.
A vehicle, trailer, or mobile home is not a good place to seek shelter. Seek shelter in a building with a strong foundation
If shelter is unavailable, lie flat in a ditch or low-lying area. Do not seek shelter under an overpass or bridge as it's safer to be in a low, flat location.

Make sure you have multiple ways to receive alerts and be prepared to take shelter quickly if necessary!

Y’all! My cousin recently sent me this picture of the Wentworth Depot. You can see two tracks clearly! I know at one time there were three! This depot dates after 1896. I know this because a portion of my home can be seen behind the Depot!!!
