Puerto Rico Gov. Alejandro García-Padilla on Thursday submitted a bill to the legislature that proposes a sweeping overhaul of the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority, with the goal of “providing clean and reliable energy at the lowest possible cost.”
Legislation authored by Rep. Nydia M. Velázquez (D-NY) aims to significantly strengthen reporting requirements for hedge funds, large privately organized, pooled investment vehicles not available to the public whose primary investors are wealthy individuals or institutions.
Puerto Rican stateside lawmakers Rep. Nydia M. Velázquez and Rep. Luis V. Gutiérrez met with U.S. Department of Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack Thursday to brief him — and express their opposition — on the waste-to-energy incinerator project proposed by Energy Answers in Arecibo.
