A plan to build an incinerator in Allanburg will not move forward.
The region's public works committee officially withdrawing its support for the project yesterday.
The city of Thorold had already agreed to back off the plan.
Last year, the region announced it was looking into allowing a $180 million energy from waste plant to be built in Thorold on Allanport Road.
But officials say now that the province has suspended its Energy from Waste Program it didn't make sense to continue to pursue the project.
