WESTFIELD — Discussions over the controversial proposed batter storage facility in Westfield brought much tension inside Westfield River Elementary on Wednesday, Feb. 26, when a team of state officials stated they could not comment on specific questions and concerns from residents regarding the proposed facility.
The state-sanctioned event was part of the team initiative for the state’s Undersecretary of Environmental Justice and Equity Maria Belen Power who started their upcoming tour to communities across the state in Westfield to hear from residents on environmental concerns. The biggest concern Westfield residents were bringing to the meeting was regarding the proposed battery storage facility.
