CISCo's "health effects" argument is bull. They just want the site and don't want a plant next to it- they can't recruit people now; how would they recruit with a "power plant" next door, even if it is a state of the art, clean gas-fired plant. Victor, Agreed! There has not been a new plant built in California in 10 years and obviously Calif had grown like crazy in that time. And the brain-dead regulators are trying to blame the utils for this. I noticed. The media are now trying to frighten people by saying this condition could happen all over the country. It won't. I also agree it will not. There are a lot of stories coming out of the CA area that make no sense to me. The most current is Baja (SP), Mexico becoming a net exporter of electricity although currently they need to import. The problem is no natural gas readily available to power additional plants there from what I can determine. Nice new state of the art gas powered plants do not work without the gas. Go figure???
