Basin Asks D.C. Circuit to Stay Clean Power Plan
Basin Electric Power Cooperative (Basin) is among the electric industry participants asking the United States Circuit Court for the District of Columbia (D.C. Circuit) to stay the implementation of the Clean Power Plan (CPP), arguing that preparing to comply with the CPP’s requirements while legal challenges are still pending would cause a significant waste of resources in the event that the CPP is struck down. Industry participants have also intervened in the case in support of the CPP, claiming that they have already spent money that may be lost if the CPP is not implemented.
