Senate Panel Redesigns Ohio Energy Umbrella Bill
A Senate subcommittee rewrites the proposed Ohio energy umbrella bill to keep the existing agencies intact while adding coal research funding and a statewide coal lab. The plan preserves PUCO, environmental, and natural resources roles, shifts long range energy forecasting to the new department, and enacts coal taxes to fund the lab with S 40,000 director pay and 10 percent coal tax proceeds.
