The Tulalip Tribes of Washington a coalition of non-Indian dairy farmers and environmentalists are moving forward with a manure recycling plant.
The tribe is buying a 277-acre former dairy farm where the biogas plant will be built. The plant will convert cow dung into electricity and create an eco-friendly manure that won't harm water needed for salmon.
The plant will cost between $1.5 million to $2.5 million.
