Today, the Alliance for Affordable Energy, Deep South Center for Environmental Justice, Inc., and Sierra Club filed an objection to Entergy’s request for a decision on its latest gas power plant application without public input nor independent analysis. The filing requests adequate time for public review and input by New Orleans residents who will be asked to pay for the gas power plant and bear the burdens of its environmental impact.

“Entergy’s proposal to build a gas power plant is a risk for not only our community, but also everyone in New Orleans,” said Anthony Tran of Mary Queen of Vietnam Catholic Church. “We need to look at this new application and make sure that what’s best for New Orleans’ communities and future drives this conversation, not Entergy’s bottom line.”
