A judge has ordered Consumers Energy to come up with a plan to rid its Lake Winds Energy Plant of excessive noise levels. Last month, Consumers Energy asked the 51st Circuit Court to overrule Mason Countys finding that the Lake Winds industrial plant is not in compliance with the countys noise ordinance. As part of that legal action the utility also wanted the court to issue a stay that would block efforts by Mason County to enforce the countys interpretation of the ordinance until after the case had been argued in court. On Monday, 51st Circuit Court Judge Richard Cooper denied the CMS request for a stay and ordered the utility to submit a plan to the county by today to mitigate the noise problem. In response, CMS officials said they would comply and a mitigation plan would be submitted. michigancapitolconfidential/19696
