Changes

On August 24, 2010 TVA announced that it was going to idle 9 of its coal-fired power plants, including six units at the [[Widows Creek Fossil Plant]]. In addition TVA stated that they were going to eliminate 200 jobs at these plants starting in 2011, but the workers will be placed in other positions within TVA. The company said that the plants going idle was to reduce carbon emissions.<ref>[http://blog.al.com/huntsville-times-business/2010/08/tva_to_idle_9_coal-fired_units.html "TVA to idle 9 coal-fired units, including 6 at Widows Creek near Bridgeport"] Budd McLaughlin, ''The Huntsville Times'', August 24, 2010.</ref>
