Environmental efforts move along at Mirant power plant in Dickerson
Mirant Corp. is on track to install pollution controls at its Dickerson generating plant that will bring the facility into compliance with the Maryland Healthy Air Act by its 2010 deadline, according to company representatives.
About one year of construction remains on new “scrubbers,” flue gas desulfurization systems that will help remove sulfur dioxide from emissions, and the nearly $400 million technology is expected to be in operation by January 2010, according to Misty Allen, a Mirant spokeswoman. Testing should begin early next fall, she said.
