The
industrial city of Vernon has abandoned a 3-year-old proposal for building a
943-megawatt power plant bitterly opposed by the communities that surround
it.
In a written statement, Vernon City Administrator Donal O'Callaghan said his city's electrical utility would submit a new application for a smaller, 330-megawatt facility, one he promised would be the "cleanest burning natural gas power plant" in the nation.
