New jobs and investment land in south Georgia

50 jobs and an investment of 15-million dollars is on the way to south Georgia, near the Florida border. A plant that will produce wood pellets and chips will be located in Thomas County. Woodlands Alternative Fuels bought a facility formerly owned by Waverly Minerals. Wood pellets will be made for fuel and horse bedding. About 60-percent of the fuel pellets will be made for the export market for use in power plans.
