WASHINGTON (AP) —
The Trump administration
says coal is back and nuclear
energy is cool. Not at the
expense of natural gas, wind
and solar, insists an unusual
coalition of business and
environmental groups.
Dow Chemical, Koch
Industries and U.S. Steel
Corp. are standing with envi-
ronmentalists in opposing
an Energy Department plan
that would reward nuclear
and coal-fired power plants
for adding reliability to the
nation’s power grid and are
pressuring the administration
to shift course.
Energy Secretary Rick
Perry says the plan is needed
to help prevent widespread
outages such as those caused
by Hurricanes Harvey, Irma
and Maria and a 2014 “polar
vortex” in the Eastern and
Central U.S. The plan aims
to reverse a steady tide of
retirements of coal and
nuclear plants, which have
lost market share as natural
gas and renewable energy
flourish.
“The continued loss of
baseload generation ... such
as coal and nuclear must
be stopped,” Perry wrote in
a Sept. 28 letter urging the
Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission to adopt the
new rule. “These generation
resources are necessary to
maintain the resiliency of
the electric grid” amid sharp
shifts in the U.S. energy
market.
Perry’s plan coincides
with
President
Donald
Trump’s vow to achieve U.S.
“energy dominance” while
ending what he and other
Republicans call a “war on
coal” waged by the Obama
administration. Perry, who
has said he wants to “make
nuclear energy cool again,” is
certain to face questions about
the plan and the opposition at
a congressional hearing on
Thursday.
Rev. Keith Krebs, 85, of Walla Walla died Wednesday, Oct.
11, 2017, at his home. He was born July 18, 1932. Arrange-

In this July 18, 2017, file photo, Energy Secretary Rick
Perry attends a news conference at the National Press
Club in Washington.
The plan would compen-
sate power plant owners
that maintain a 90-day fuel
supply protected against the
elements. Critics say it could
result in subsidies worth
billions of dollars.
Environmental groups say
the plan would boost dirty
fuels and harm consumers,
while the energy industry
warns about interference in
the free market and manufac-
turers complain about higher
energy prices that could be
passed on to consumers.
A coalition of industry
groups, ranging from the
American
Council
on
Renewable Energy to the
American Petroleum Institute
and the Natural Gas Supply
Association, also blasted the
plan, saying it could harm
“entire industries and their
tens of thousands workers.”
Amy Farrell, senior vice
president of the American
Wind Energy Association,
said the proposal could
“upend competitive markets
that save consumers billions
of dollars a year.”
Marty Durbin, execu-
tive vice president of the
petroleum institute, the
top lobbying group for the
oil and gas industry, said
officials “need to be careful
that government doesn’t put
its thumb on the scale” in
energy markets. “It’s better
to let markets choose, which
is what the United States is
seeing with the growth of
natural gas” as the leading
U.S. electricity source,
Durbin said.
The Industrial Energy
Consumers of America, a
trade group that represents
Dow, Koch Industries and
other manufacturing giants,
is among those lobbying
against the plan. In a letter to
Congress, the group called
the proposal “anti-competi-
tive” and said it could distort
or “destroy competitive
wholesale electricity markets,
increase the price of elec-
tricity to all consumers” and
harm U.S. manufacturing.
The manufacturers and
other critics say there is no
evidence of a threat to the
grid’s day-to-day reliability
that would justify the emer-
gency action Perry is seeking.
Indeed, in a report
commissioned by Perry and
delivered in August, the
Energy Department said
“reliability is adequate today
despite the retirement of 11
percent of the generating
capacity available in 2002,
as significant additions from
natural gas, wind, and solar
have come online since then.”
Russia scores temporary win on cybercrime suspect
THESSALONIKI,
Greece (AP) — Russia
on Wednesday won the
latest round in a judicial
tug-of-war with the U.S. over
who should try a Russian
cybercrime suspect arrested
during a holiday in Greece.
Last week, a panel of
judges in the city of Thes-
saloniki agreed to send
Alexander Vinnik to the U.S.
to face charges he laundered
$4 billion worth of bitcoins
through BTC-e, one of
the world’s largest digital
currency exchanges, which
he allegedly operated.
On Wednesday, a different
panel of judges accepted a
Russian extradition request,
which followed the initial
U.S. one. In Russia, Vinnik
is accused of a 667,000-ruble
($11,500) fraud.
The final decision will
rest with Greece’s justice
minister once Vinnik, 37,
has exhausted the process of
appealing his extradition to
the U.S.
“When both requests
from two different countries
are accepted (in court), like
in this case, it’s up to the
Justice Minister to decide
which request to comply
with,”
said
Xanthippe
Moissidou, one of Vinnik’s
lawyers.
Vinnik denies both sets
of charges, but said he wants
to be tried in Russia. He has
appealed his U.S. extradi-
tion, and Greece’s Supreme
Court is expected to rule on
that appeal in coming weeks.
“If the Supreme Court
rejects the U.S. request, as
our client wants, the minister
is obliged to follow (its)
decision,” Moissidou said.
The U.S. Justice Depart-
ment says that Vinnik has
been indicted by a grand
jury in the Northern District
of California, on charges
including money laundering,
conspiracy to commit money
laundering and engaging in
unlawful monetary transac-
tions.
The charges, if proved
in court, carry maximum
sentences of up to 20 years
in prison.
