EPA Proposes Rule Changes to Coal Combustion Residuals (CCR) Requirements to Restore American Energy Dominance

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.

Utilities Clean Up After Hurricane Lili

LCG, Oct. 7, 2002--The damage caused by last week's Hurricane Lili on Louisiana electricity customers lingers, with 20,000 customers still without power as of Monday.

The transmission system of two utilities, Entergy Corp. and Cleco Corp., still requires repairs, although the impact of the hurricane, which cut power to 400,000, has largely been countered. "Our transmission system was severely damaged in southern Louisiana," an Entergy spokesman, Morgan Stewart, said.

Entergy had brought 43 out of 62 affected transmission lines back into service by Sunday evening, but was still working on a 500-kilivolt line, Weber/Richard, in the western part of Entergy's territory. No estimate of the line's return to service was given.

Cleco's service territory has been brought entirely back to service, but further repairs are needed. It was the most severe storm ever for Cleco, in terms of the proportion of customers who lost service. One of every two customers were without power.
