About $8B of proposed wind and solar projects may be at risk under the new province edict, but 500-MW Buffalo Plains onshore wind generator is set to operate by year-end.
Walter P Moore and Associates expert says the project, which the firm and Rice University are designing, involves constructing an island chain to protect industry in the Houston Ship Channel from hurricane impact.
This project added a pair of land bridges over a road dividing Houston’s largest park in order to reunite its north and south sides and improve connectivity for both visitors and wildlife.
U.S. General Services Administration estimates it has more than $2 billion in unfunded environmental
liabilities, with asbestos-related cleanups accounting for $1.6 billion
of the total.
Project would replace coal-fired facility that spilled millions of gallons of coal ash waste in a river and surrounding area after a 2008 impoundment collapse.
