Overview of regulatory programs by Debbie Fox, McIlvaine Company - Hot Topic Hour February 5, 2015.

Debbie Fox, McIlvaine Company, provided an overview of regulatory programs that are forcing changes in how power is generated in the U.S. For example, many coal-fired power plants will choose to shut down rather than comply with the Mercury and Air Toxics Standards (MATS). CO2 emission standards for new plants will effectively prohibit the construction of any new coal-fired power plants.
