Saint John has agreed to option 40 hectares of land to the Atlantic Potash Corp. as part of the company’s plan to build a $350-million fertilizer production facility in the McAllister Industrial Park.
Atlantic Potash is trying to develop a potash mine in the Millstream area, near Norton, and the proposed fertilizer production facility is an extension of the company’s plan.
Keith Attoe, a director with Atlantic Potash, said his company is looking forward to working with the city on developing two specialty fertilizer plants in the McAllister Industrial Park.
