When AMP withdrew their proposal in late November 2009, they announced that they'd still be seeking to develop a smaller natural gas or "biomass" fired power plant at the same site.
In February 2008, NRDC released a report detailing the cost of the AMP Generating Station on taxpayers.
In March 2008, opposition groups appealed the decision to grant the air permit.
