Clean Power Plan update
On February 9, 2016, the Supreme Court voted to block the Environmental Protection Agency's Clean Power Plan from going forward while the rule is challenged in court. This rule just became effective on December 22, 2015. It sought to limit the amount of carbon dioxide emissions produced by steam electric and natural gas fired power plants in the United States.
