Photos of the AVTEX Rayon Plant in 1995

Looking North from fence line

Looking north over the fence which circles the plant, we see one of two tanks which is believed to hold water that has passed through adjacent petrification and settling tanks. The bottem photo was taken from the same location as this one.

This is just one of several groups of tanks that are used for storage of various liquids.


Close-up of Power Plant

This close-up of the five stacked power plant shows the pollution control system installed just before the plant closed down. The model of the power plant sports an earlier version of the smoke and ash containment equipment which hung on the side of the building and was never removed. Note the coal conveyer system on the right which feeds coal into the power plant.
