An agreement between Florida Power & Light Co. and the Miami-Dade County Commission to work together to address hypersaline groundwater pollution from FPL’s Turkey Point nuclear plant may be too little, too late to resolve pollution concerns.
Under the agreement approved April 10 by the county commission, FPL and the county will work together to build a wastewater treatment plant to supply reclaimed cooling water for Florida Power & Light Co.’s 2,503-MW Turkey Point Power Station. The agreement also calls on FPL to expand solar-energy facilities, build electric-vehicle charging stations and set up battery storage for the Metrorail rapid-transit system.
