Emerald Energy and Exploration will soon be relocating its headquarters to Right to Work Salyersville, Kentucky. This will allow them access to Right to Work benefits. In order to make the relocation possible, the company is investing $1.4 million toward the project. They also plan to create 25 new jobs! So this is exciting news for the economy!

From Area Development Magazine:

“Emerald Energy is grateful to be in a position that we can provide opportunities to Eastern Kentuckians entering or returning to the workforce. […] Emerald is dedicated to improving the infrastructure of the region by helping utilities provide safe and reliable services. We appreciate the incentives provided by the Commonwealth of Kentucky and Magoffin County and their elected officials for making this possible.†[…]

“The extension of the Mountain Parkway greatly improves access to Eastern Kentucky and positions new and existing businesses to invest, grow and create quality jobs for our residents in the region. […] This project will benefit Magoffin County and the surrounding area as Emerald Energy continues to grow in the commonwealth. It has been a mission of my administration to create great jobs in Eastern Kentucky, and this is another step toward achieving that goal.
