Chairman Cheryl LaFleur gaveled her final Federal Energy Regulatory Commission open meeting last week, nearing the end of a tumultuous 16-month term.

FERC upheld its 2011 rate order for the RITELine transmission project over the opposition of Commissioner Philip Moeller, who opposed the panel’s decision to reduce an incentive adder for risks.

Janet McCabe said last week that the EPA had met with more than 300 groups since releasing its proposed Clean Power Plan in June.
