Mooney seeks moratorium on new power plant permits
In Annapolis with under three weeks left in the 2002 session, Sen. Alex Mooney proposes a moratorium on new power plant permits until Maryland meets Clean Air Act ozone standards. The move follows a Duke Energy Point of Rocks plant proposal and a hearing where regulators urged a 30 day delay. Mooney’s bill, filed late, faces slim odds amid opposition and late hearings.
