FUTURE

Clean energy possibilities include the addition of solar panels. Manufacturing facilities and buildings can be constructed to house PennDOT products. For the agricultural industry, lime and other fertilizers could be stored here. For the gas and oil industry, frack sand can be contained in these buildings. According to a recent feasibility study, all of these efforts combined could create up to 3,000 jobs regionally.
