One of the nation’s largest coal-burning utilities said yesterday it will shutter 18 of its coal-fired boilers and pay billions to rein in pollutants at many of its remaining units, underscoring the evolving energy landscape in the United States. The move by the Tennessee Valley Authority will result in nearly 1 percent of the nation’s coal-fired power capacity going offline by the end of 2018, including 1,000 megawatts of coal-fired power TVA said it planned to retire last year. TVA’s landmark deal with a suite of states and environmental groups and U.S. EPA resolves a number of lingering violation complaints EPA brought against the company for allegedly failing to comply with Clean Air Act pollution control requirements at 11 of its plants.

The lawsuit lists three specific times Dumke requested information from the city and was denied. (Read the full lawsuit here) In one case, Dumke requested Mayor Daley’s appointment calendar and schedule for November and December of 2009 and February through April of 2010. Typically, the Mayor’s office sends a list of Daley’s public meetings to reporters each day, but Dumke was wondering who Daley was meeting with in City Hall during those times. Jenny Hoyle, a spokeswoman with the city’s law department, said Dumke’s schedule request was too big, which is why it was rejected. She said Daley’s schedule is not maintained in a searchable database, therefore “every schedule includes information that needs to be redacted, including the personal contact information of the Mayor’s security detail—the Chicago police officers assigned to him for that day.”
