LCG, April 10, 2026--The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced yesterday a rule proposing several revisions to the federal regulations governing the disposal of coal combustion residuals (CCR) and the beneficial use of CCR. The EPA designed the rule to encourage resource recovery, allow for site-specific considerations in permitting, and provide regulatory relief while continuing to protect human health and the environment. The EPA will be accepting comments on the rule for 60 days after publication in the Federal Register, and it will also hold an online public hearing on the rule.

FP&L Expands Plant With Gas
LCG, June 14, 2002--An existing power plant in DeBary, Florida, will see one of two new planned gas-fired generating units go online today, to replace one of its three oil units.The utility Florida Power & Light, part of the FPL Group, intends in the fall to bring the Sanford plant's second gas unit into operation, with another 1970's-era oil-burner to be shut down at that time. With the third oil-fired unit will remain ready to provide backup power as needed, the overall capacity of the plant will rise from 950 megawatts to 2,050 megawatts.The plant will use combined-cycle technology, which incorporates steam turbines to capture energy released from the fossil-fuel combustion, achieving higher fuel efficiency than is possible with the gas turbines alone.
