Hunsucker Goodstein & Nelson PC, with the North Carolina Attorney General's Office, represented the State of North Carolina in its successful suit against the Tennessee Valley Authority for operating coal-fired power plants with excessive air pollution that substantially impacts public health and natural resources in North Carolina. The settlement requires TVA to retire at least 18 of its 59 coal units including its oldest and most polluting, install and continuously operate up-to-date emission-control equipment on most of the remaining units, and pay North Carolina $11.2 million in mitigation for energy efficiency and electricity-demand-reduction programs.
