The Fremont Area Community Foundation has emerged as a potential source of fundraising for an investigation to study the long-term environmental and health effects pesticides have had near the AltEn ethanol plant in Mead.
Executive Director Melissa Diers said the foundation has not committed any funds to the study, which is in its early phases of development.
However, the foundation has met with members of the research team, which consists of public health officials and researchers from the University of Nebraska and Creighton University, to learn more about the project.
âWeâre interested in this endeavor because Mead is within our grant area and is a community that we exist to support like every other community within our six-county-plus grant area,â Diers said.
