TVA Seeking Public Input
KENTUCKY...
A series of public hearings on the Tennessee Valley Authority's plans to rely more on nuclear power and less on coal starts Tuesday at Bowling Green, Ky.
The utility has also set public hearings Wednesday at Nashville, Thursday at Olive Branch, Miss.; Oct. 13 at Knoxville and Oct. 14 at Huntsville, Ala.
The draft Integrated Resources Plan is intended to help TVA's efforts to meet regional electricity needs over the next 20 years.
The public can comment through November and then TVA will submit the plan to the Environmental Protection Agency for a review of the environmental impact.
TVA supplies power to nearly 9 million people in Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Kentucky, Georgia, North Carolina and Virginia.
