NEW ORLEANS - Council President Helena Moreno has issued the following statement on the Civil District Court New Orleans Power Station (NOPS) ruling:

"Judge Griffin made it clear that the past City Council acted appropriately and that it was Entergy New Orleans that undermined the process. This affirms the current Council's position that Entergy used disgraceful tactics. This Council aggressively investigated and penalized the company for their reprehensible acts along with holding additional public hearings. Under the advisement of the City Attorney, we await the judge's order."
