The Brantly Steam Generating Plant, supplying about 15 percent of Danville's electricity, may be shut by July 1, 1973 if EPA pressures prevail. Mayor Clarke says upgrading or closing is required due to four years of emissions concerns. EPA has referred the case to the U.S. Attorney over particulates, and local plans rely on 69kV links to APCO until 128kV upgrades planned for 1981.
