We’d like your readers to know that Firestone has completed and is operating a new state-of-the-art, multimillion dollar water treatment facility that re-routes water from its factory through equalization and clarification tanks and into constructed wetlands on the Firestone property for natural, biological treatment. This process was developed in cooperation with the Liberian Environmental Protection Agency and the foremost environmental wetlands expert in the world, Dr. Robert Knight... The unwarranted and negative characterization by SAMFU of these highly sophisticated and scientifically tested wetlands treatment pools shows just how little that group knows about 21st century environmental management.
