Glen Lyn power plant will take part in pollution review
Appalachian Power’s coal-fired power plant in Giles County and MeadWestvaco’s paper mill in Covington will participate in a state evaluation of pollution emissions from older facilities that were exempted from the federal Clean Air Act, Gov. Tim Kaine announced this morning.
The 335-megawatt Glen Lyn plant in Giles County will mark its 90th anniversary of operations next week, said Dana Waldo, the president and chief operating officer of Appalachian Power.
Reporter Michael Sluss and Laurence Hammack have more on this story.
