Waste coal plant on hold because of economy
New York City-based Sithe Global Power LLC had announced plans for the plant in Shade Township, Somerset County, in January.
Engineers will continue with obtaining permits, but a spokeswoman says other plans are on hold until the company finds a financial partner.

The company had hoped the plant could be in production in 2013.
