Comments
Plans for the proposed 750MW power station adjacent to the Kogan Creek coal deposit were postponed in 2000 by the previous
owners, a joint venture between Mirant Corporation (60%) and CS Energy, who are positioning to meet power demand increases. All
environmental and regulatory approvals for the projects are in place
