En lenguaje claro
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives honoring MEAG Power, the Municipal Electric Authority of Georgia, which was created in 1975 as a nonprofit public corporation to supply wholesale electricity to Georgia's electric cities. The resolution recounts MEAG Power's history, including its governance by a board of residents from its 49 participating communities, its mix of nuclear, natural gas, coal, and hydroelectric power sources, and its 22.7 percent ownership stake in Plant Vogtle Units 3 and 4. The resolution does not change any Georgia law, create any program, or spend any state funds. It formally recognizes and commends MEAG Power on its 50th anniversary and directs the Clerk of the House to provide a copy of the resolution to the organization.
