Susquehanna/Conowingo Environmental Impact Statement Released For Comment

The federal Environmental Protection Administration has released a preliminary environmental impact statement for the relicensing of multiple Exelon facilities, including the Conowingo Dam.

From AP coverage, published in The Daily Record:

The deadline for commenting on the draft EIS published Wednesday is Sept. 29.

Exelon’s operating permit for the Conowingo dam in northeast Maryland expires Sept. 1, but it likely will be allowed to continue operating under an interim permit pending a final permit decision.
