Conemaugh Coal-Burning Generating Station

The Conemaugh Generating Station is owned by Reliant Resources. It is primarily a coal-fired polluting power plant in western Pennsylvania near New Florence in Indiana County.

Its power output is 1700 megawatts from coal and 12 megawatts from diesel.

It has a scrubber and some other upgrades to reduce emissions.

Locals are concerned about pollution from this plant going into the Conemaugh river that it is next to.

I will be adding more info about this plant soon.
