Whey plant contract okayed by Vermont Emergency Board
The Vermont Emergency Board unanimously approved two contracts for the whey pollution abatement project. Consultant Henry McEvoy will design and oversee engineering for 544000, with 33000 set aside for overrun costs. A second 274000 contract with the University of Vermont funds a major project evaluation, with UVM potentially paying 145000. The audit found legal spending but questioned some practices and a missed interest on a federal grant. Gov Salmon backed the plant as the best available option.

Vermont utilities filed a Supreme Court appeal after a Washington County Court voided the Public Service Board power and fuel cost pass through clause. Judge William Hill ruled the PSB lacked authority to enact a major substantive change via rulemaking, removing public hearings from rate setting. The decision prompted consumer relief rhetoric and signals more filings as utilities seek higher rates.
