Radicals Win Challenge Against Renovo Energy Center in NCPA

| | | | | |
In May 2021, the radicals from PennFuture, the Philadelphia-based Clean Air Council, and the so-called Center for Biological Diversity (better named the Center for Leftwing Conformity) challenged an air permit issued by the Pennsylvania Dept. of Environmental Protection (DEP) for the Renovo Energy Center, a Marcellus-fired power plant in Clinton County (northcentral), PA (see PA DEP Approves Renovo Energy Center in Clinton Cnty, Antis Appeal). The state Environmental Hearing Board (EHB), a special court set up to hear challenges of DEP decisions, ruled earlier this week that the radicals are correct and the DEP should not have issued an air permit with "high" levels of sulfur dioxide and VOCs (volatile organic compounds). Is this a fatal blow for the $1 billion project and the 700 jobs attached to it?
