Carroll County Gas-Fired Power Plant to Be Subject of Public Meeting

From the Akron Beacon Journal:
A private company wanting to burn natural gas from Ohio’s Utica shale to produce electricity in an $800 million plant is holding a public informational meeting on Thursday in Carroll County.
The Ohio Power Siting Board will attend the meeting from 6 to 8 p.m. in the fine arts room at Carrollton High School, 252 Third St. NE, Carrollton.
Carroll County Energy LLC, a subsidiary of Boston-based Advanced Power Services, wants to build a 700-megawatt plant on a 77-acre site in Washington Township north of Carrollton. That is enough generation to provide electricity to 700,000 houses.
The plant will provide up to 500 construction jobs and will employ 25 to 30 workers when completed.
