All four towns eventually could get FutureGen plants, CEO says

TUSCOLA – The chief executive officer of the FutureGen Alliance says all four finalists for his organization's project could be in line to get a clean-coal gasification plant if they pass environmental tests.

"FutureGen must not be an end to itself," FutureGen Alliance CEO Mike Mudd said during a tour Friday afternoon of a proposed site in rural Tuscola. "It must be a pathway that shows that coal will remain a viable energy option for our children and grandchildren."
