McInerney, Assistant Town Administrator Kevin Mizikar and members of the Energy Committee will hold outreach programs to explain and answer questions about the project.

The outreach meetings are scheduled for Thursdays, 7 p.m., at the following locations:

Jan. 19: South Grafton Community House

Jan. 26: Conference Room A
