Consumers plans to withdraw a Certificate of Necessity filing for the constructing the 700-MW generating plant in Thetford Township near Flint. However, Consumers states that it is not cancelling the project, but deferring it. The project will be developed when
circumstances, including customer needs and energy policy, support restarting the project.
