This website was put together by a group of local citizens to provide information about Titan America's plans to build the 4th largest cement plant in the nation, along the banks of the Northeast Cape Fear River, just outside of Wilmington, NC. We oppose this cement plant, proposed by Titan (also called Carolinas Cement) because of the impacts it will have to our coastal region. Since Titan first announced their plans to operate a cement plant and mine in our community (on April 21, 2008), a strong community coalition of opposition has come together to fight this project. Known collectively as the Stop Titan Action Network (STAN), we aim to protect our air, water, aquifers and public health in the Cape Fear region. In the process we strive to create a thriving, healthy, and sustainable economy that exists in harmony with the rich natural heritage and abundant coastal resources we all share and on which our future and that of our children depends.

Please review the information we've collected and posted on this website. We have documents and opinions from experts in medicine, chemistry, marine science, economics, business development and environmental law. The main participating groups are listed with information about their individual organizations. Please join us in this important fight for the future our our region. Jobs and economic development should not come at the expense of our community's health and environment. We can do better. Join us today and be part of the solution to a better future.
