A controversial ethanol plant planned for Sparta won't be built next to a food processing plant.
Century Foods International and Coulee Area Renewable Energy (CARE) say they've reached a settlement by which CARE will no longer pursue the construction of an ethanol plant next to Century Foods.
Century Foods manufactures milk-based products and had feared the ethanol plant's emissions would contaminate their products.

CARE is looking at another location for the ethanol plant.
