• United Wisconsin Grain Producers, L.L.C. From their initial prospectus:
  •  
  •  "We May be Subject to Nuisance Claims Due to the Nature of Our Plant, Addressing the Costs of Which Will Deplete Our Resources and Could Reduce Our Financial Performance - We intend to locate the plant in Columbia County near the village of Friesland. Ethanol production has been known to produce an odor to which surrounding residents could object, and may also increase dust in the area due to its operations and the transportation of grain to the plant and ethanol and Distillers Dried Grains from the plant. Such activities could subject us to nuisance, trespass or similar claims by employees or property owners or residents in the vicinity of the plant. To help minimize the risk of nuisance claims based on odors related to the production of ethanol and its byproducts, we intend to install a thermal oxidizer in the Plant. See "BUSINESS (:) Thermal Oxidizer." Nonetheless, the costs of defending against any such claims, or increased costs to address complaints, could harm may reduce our financial performance, and could reduce the amount of cash available to distribute to investors or to enhance our business."
