Info

Upsetting the Offset piles up on everything. These health risks have not been addressed by the company and like most villagers living next to a factory or power station, they fear complaining. The villagers complained of noise pollution when the power station was being built. The engine was so loud in the first month of operation that residents living opposite the power station complained of having to shout in order to be heard by each other. Instead of slowing operations or modifying the engine, the company responded by offering the villagers ear plugs. Each time the villagers have complained about the station, the standard response has been to offer them gifts to stay quiet. (Local residents asked to remain anonymous.) Resistance to the A.T. Biopower Station In 2001, A.T. Biopower was still in planning stages and the company was considering sites in which to build its five factories. One of the sites being considered was located in Nam Song, a river-dependent community in the Phayuha Khiri district, Nakhon Sawan province of Thailand. This community is located about 50 kilometres from the now functioning Pichit plant. It is located on the fertile flood plain of the Chao Phraya River, just downstream from where two tributaries merge at Nakhon Sawah (Heavenly City). After six years of struggle against the site proposal the Nam Song community successfully deterred the developers from building on their lands. 61
Cases Across the road from the Pichit plant the company has started dumping the biomass waste next to homes of local residents. According to a local resident near the Pichit plant, they were offered ‘as much ash as they wanted for free because the company does not want it.’ Suraphol Pan-ngam shows his neighbor’s aquaculture operation located on the banks of the Chao Phraya River. The fish are raised for community consumption and for sale in the local market. 62
