The Oneida Nation has ended talks with Brown County, Wisconsin, over an agreement to accept trash at its biomass facility.

Oneida Seven Generations Corp. still plans to build the 60,000-square-foot facility. But it won't be accepting waste from the county, a decision that perplexed officials.

"We were down to just wordsmithing," a county official told The Green Bay Press-Gazette.

The president of Oneida Seven Generations issued a statement saying that the tribe and the county had "different objectives."
