PORTSMOUTH The state’s two Democratic U.S. senators and Maine’s independent U.S. senator gave the nation s new deputy secretary of defense a tour Wednesday of the region’s two military bases the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Kittery and the N.H. Air Guard 157th Air Refueling Wing at Pease.
While it was largely a show and tell for Deputy Secretary of Defense Kathleen Hicks to see the ongoing construction of a new superflood basin at the shipyard and the new fleet of 12 KC-46A refueling tankers at the Air Guard base here, there are some underlying issues at both locations.
PORTSMOUTH Lonza Biologics intends to add 32,300 square feet of additional manufacturing space and 250 new jobs to its plant at the Pease International Tradeport.
The company Thursday morning announced expansion plans for both the Portsmouth facility and its plant in Visp, Switzerland, in response to what it said is a growth in the biologics market, particularly as the world has focused attention on a COVID-19 vaccine that Lonza is producing in concert with Moderna.
This expansion is planned as construction within the facility s existing space, according to Lonza Biologics spokesman Glenn Meyers, so there is no need for approval by the Pease Development Authority and will require just the usual construction permitting process.
PORTSMOUTH – Seven years after city officials learned PFAS had contaminated one of its wells at the former Pease Air Force Base, city, state and federal officials celebrated the completion of the Pease Water Treatment Facility on Tuesday.
The $17 million facility paid for by the Air Force has already been treating the Smith and Harrison wells so PFAS chemicals are now at non-detect levels, according to Al Pratt, the city’s water resource manager.
“It’s working,” Pratt said following a press conference Tuesday morning at the site, which was attended by three members of the state’s congressional delegation, along with city leaders and long-time clean water advocate Andrea Amico.
NEWINGTON - It’s been a new year of new beginnings for the company formerly known as Wheelabrator Technologies.
In addition to transitioning to a new name - WIN Waste Innovations - after a series of acquisitions, the waste management company moved its headquarters to a new building on the Pease International Tradeport.
And that new building - located at 90 Arboretum Drive on the Newington side of the Tradeport - is a first of its kind in New England timber frame construction, a synergistic tie to the self-described environmentally responsible mission of WIN Waste Innovations.
“As a combined company, each year we convert 6.7 million tons of waste into clean, renewable energy to power 340,000 homes and recycle more than 234,000 tons of plastic, paper and metal from the waste stream,” said CEO Robert Boucher.
