The N.C. Environmental Review Commission (ERC) met today in Raleigh. This group of legislators has been asked to study how a new long-term license for the Yadkin Project might affect the State of North Carolina.
The Yadkin Study Bill was discussed by George Givens, the counsel for the ERC. He indicated this issue would be addressed by a working group led by Givens. Legislators and others commonly refer to this process as a “605” process, named after the legislative room where discussions typically take place.
As part of our effort to educate the ERC about the relicensing process, Givens and members of his staff toured the Yadkin Project earlier this month with representatives from APGI and Stanly County.
We will keep you posted on future developments related to the Yadkin Study Bill. The next ERC meeting is scheduled for November 25, 2008 in Raleigh.
