AEP: Clean coal plant on hold

Daily Sentinel story.

This is different from the AMP power plant that is still a go.

Originally, there were 3 planned plants on slate for Meigs and Mason (WV, right across the river) counties.

  • American Municipal power is still going to happen.
  • AEP's clean coal power plant is on hold.
  • Mason County plant has been approved by West Virginia. This is an identical plant to the one that was going to be built by AEP in Meigs.

So, the environazis should be laughing over their lattes after reading this story. This does nothing, however, to help the 600 Century Aluminum employees who just lost their jobs.

One question for Debbie Phillips, she said she was for clean coal, during the latest campaign for State Representative. Is she working with Gov. Strickland to remove roadblocks for this clean coal plant being built? I haven't heard that she is.
