On July 28, 2008, the US Dept of Labor's Occupational Safety & Health Administration issued two citations against New Engand Wood Pellet, Jaffrey NH, for about $132,000 for two willfull violations.
How many bags of pellets is $132,000?
In January, a worker got caught in a conveyor belt, and OSHA claims NE Pellet "showed lack of concern and total indifference to his safety."
So, the higher prices are a result of one employee's poor attitude & worker inattention, or something.
Article in today's papers.
Between NH's high paying factory wages and safety rules, probably it's cheaper to fly pellets to a NH Wal-Mart from China.
