Since 2016, when Drax opened its manufacturing plant in Gloster, the facility has repeatedly violated its operating permits and paid multiple fines over excess emissions.

That includes a $2.5 million fine in 2021 that represents one of the largest Clean Air Act penalties in Mississippi history.

Gloster Biomass Plant Continues Push to Increase Emissions

Mississippi regulators are revisiting an earlier decision to deny new permits for Drax’s Gloster, Mississippi, facility at an Oct. 14 public meeting.

ICE left David, a 17-year-old boy, stranded on the side of Interstate 20 after pulling over his immigrant father, Hector, in Mississippi.

David began running in the scorching sun after the car and watched as it disappeared from sight—soon headed to a Louisiana ICE prison.

Here's their story.
