CHULA VISTA — Regional water pollution regulators left the door open on Wednesday for the South Bay Power Plant to continue operating through 2011 — maybe longer.
South Bay civic leaders and conservationists have tried to force the plant’s closure for years, citing environmental problems with a facility that dates to the 1960s. Several of them asked the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board on Wednesday to terminate a permit that allows the plant to discharge cooling water into south San Diego Bay.
