There will be more letters to the editor on Wabash National and it's subsidiaries in the future(their violations)
Count on it.  Somebody has to tell the public the truth. Since the Morrison County Record only print what they want the public to know about this company.



See the top picture where is says "city lot"....that taxpayer owned lot is the only property possible for Wabash National to expand, should they want to do that into the future.  It is adjacent to a stormwater ditch, owned by Morrison County, and maintained by the city of Little Falls. (city has an easement)  The potential for disaster is omni present on these 2 properties.  Let's hope the city does not extend the same privilege to Wabash, as it did Larson Boats, who have trashed that city owned lot with multitude of debris in the topsoil.

What is really disturbing about Wabash National, a known polluter buying the Larson Boats facility, is that all of the paving of the majority of this property, was done BEFORE the current standards for holding ponds were required.  In other words, it does NOT MEET today's city requirements for those now required ponds that provide a buffer for stormwater runoff.  You can see for yourself where any spills or runoff would end up.  Our great river is dangerously close to Wabash future property.

 Ya right.....now who on earth would believe this??  This corporate mission statement is the definition of hypocrisy■■■


And then there are Donald Trumps latest tricks that will help corporations like Wabash National and subsidiaries to poison our water and air even more.....
The picture above is of the small pond at the northeast corner of Larson Boats property and is very close to the shoreline of the Mississippi.  They had junk stored on this corner last time I visited and took this picture.


ALL OF THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION WAS IN David Drowns background check of Wabash National. David was hired to find out the financial liabilities, but the Morrison County Record, city elected officials/staff, the Chamber of Commerce, and the medical community should have done their homework before deciding to become "CHEERLEADERS" for a KNOWN/ well documented violator of OSHA and EPA laws. It appears the official city/county newspaper(MCRecord, subsidized with over 40k in city/county corporate WELFARE SUBSIDY) is nothing more than a $hopper.  It should be named the Morrison County Shopper.
