Overview
This grant to first-time grantee the Environmental Integrity Project would help build the organization’s capacity to strengthen and to determine how state and national agencies regulate pollution associated with coal-fired power generation. Unlike our other grantees, this organization looks at the entire suite of regulations that impact coal, not just the Clean Air Act. This includes water used for cooling processes, solid waste generated from coal ash, and waste water. Their work often provides the technical and legal underpinning of the work used by advocacy groups, like the Sierra Club and the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy.
