NAACP raises concerns over cement plant too close to school

The Tuscaloosa Chapter of the NAACP is concerned that the dust particles and chemicals used could impact the students health.
The concrete batching plant is right across from the school off of 15th Street and dozens of mixing trucks pull in and out of the plant every day stirring dust into the air.
"We can't have a concrete batching plant right across the street from where we are trying to educate our kids," said NAACP director Jerry Carter.

The NAACP would like the plant to be relocated to an industrial park in the city or county.
"I would like to see the city or the county work something out so the electric concrete mixing plant can relocate away from the school," said Carter.
The NAACP will host a community meeting Thursday at 5 p.m. at the McDonald Hughes Center.
