The Spirit of Jefferson reports that the Jefferson County Planning Commission will host a public hearing on November 12 regarding Sidewinder Enterprises LLC's proposal to construct a 1 million-square-foot water bottling plant on the former 3M factory site in Middleway. The plan includes 596 parking spaces, exceeding the necessary 550 spots for employees, but does not specify the water source or the quantity needed. A hydrogeological assessment from April 2022 by Triad Engineering Inc. reveals details on two test wells drilled on property owned by Sidewinder near the proposed location.
