HOMER CITY, UNITED STATES – JUNE 12: With the shuttered Homer City Power Plant in the background, at the Lucerne Reclamation project site in Center Township, PA, a worker moves coal refuse to be prepared for transport to be cleaned on June 12, 2024. The soil, contaminated by coal refuse, is cleaned and returned to the land where it is encased and covered with top soil and planted as a meadow. Ever since the Homer City power plant closed in June 2023, the town has been looking into an uncertain future with the loss of jobs and the largest contribution to their tax base.
