RENOVO-Plans for a $1 billion natural gas-fired power generating plant on the site of former railroad yards in a borough northwest of Lock Haven in Clinton County have been scrapped.
The company referred to the appeal filed two years ago by the Clean Air Council, Penn Future and the Center for Biological Diversity over the approval by the state Department of Environmental Resources of the air quality permit. The Clean Air Council, Penn Future and the Center for Biological Diversity praised Bechtel’s decision stating in a release:
“It is a win for Renovo and for all Pennsylvanians when we realize that the fracked gas industry doesn’t make sense - from an economic, energy or environmental health perspective,” said PennFuture’s senior attorney Jessica O’Neill. Environmental groups had contended the proposed 1,240-megawatt generating plant would be one of the most polluting facilities in the commonwealth.
Silly. Natural gas plants are clean and work at night and when there is no wind
And watch as PA residents pay even more for electricity. WOO HOO!
