Cat.: Beltway Outsider, Dept. of Energy, Government in My Backyard (GIMBY)By Matthew Blake | 31. August 2010
Comment
Bill McMorris of Illinois Statehouse News reports that the Dept. of Energy is experiencing a communications breakdown with two rural Illinois towns about plans for "FutureGen 2.0," a less ambitious version of DOE's plan for a commercial scale "clean coal" power plant. Basically, DOE pencilled the towns in for big projects without telling them beforehand.
