                     COAL-FIRED POWER UNIT SHUTDOWN

  (Mrs. LUMMIS asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mrs. LUMMIS. Mr. Speaker, later this month, in the State of Wyoming, 
a coal-fired power unit is going to shut down production for the very 
last time. This is going to happen 10 years before its useful life has 
diminished.
  This is happening because of Federal regulations. This is 
inexpensive, abundant, coal-fired power which serves the people of this 
country being cut down 10 years before the useful life of this plant is 
spent. This is a travesty of Federal regulation which will cost the 
American people more than it should for their own power.
  You are going to be hearing more about this later this month from me, 
Mr. Speaker. This is not the last word.
