The volunteer grassroots citizens’ group KEEP is dedicated to ensuring our community breathe clean air, drink clean water and enjoy the benefits of a healthy environment for ourselves and our children. KEEP's current environmental campaign is to stop Erie Renewable Energy from building a tire burning facility on the former International Paper site near East Lake Road and Downing Avenue, south to 10th street.  The tire burning plant will be 250 feet away from the Boys & Girls Club and the sports fields to the south of it.
