The President of American Iron and Metal Herb Black says the expansion of the metal shredder at the port should be going forward as planned.
The port, NB Power, and the city held an emergency meeting yesterday and have worked out a tenative plan to get power to the project after the company threatened to take it elsewhere.
Black tells CHSJ News since there seems to be a solution, he won't be abandoning Saint John.
He hopes the power issue is the last hiccup in the plan and says he looks foward to prospering with the city.
Details about how the expansion will be powered will be dicussed at the next council meeting.
