Case Involving Johnsonville Aeroderivative Combustion Turbine Project. On December 22, 2022, the Southern Environmental Law Center filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee on behalf of the Sierra Club, alleging that TVA violated the National Environmental Policy Act ("NEPA") in deciding to build a new aeroderivative combustion turbine project at its Johnsonville facility. Both parties moved for summary judgment, and on September 30, 2024, the court granted TVA's motion for summary judgment and dismissed the lawsuit. The Sierra Club did not file an appeal within 60 days from the date of the decision, so this litigation has now ended.Case Involving Cumberland Combined Cycle Plant.  On June 14, 2023, Appalachian Voices, the Center for Biological Diversity, and the Sierra Club filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee alleging that TVA violated NEPA in deciding to build a 1,450 MW combined cycle plant at its Cumberland facility.  The plaintiffs request the court, among other things, to enter a declaratory judgment that the Cumberland Environmental Impact Statement ("EIS") violated NEPA and TVA's decision to issue the Cumberland Record of Decision was arbitrary, capricious, and/or not in accordance with law; enter a declaratory judgment that TVA’s failure to supplement the Cumberland EIS violated NEPA and was arbitrary, capricious, and/or not in accordance with law; vacate the Cumberland EIS and the Cumberland Record of Decision; order TVA to prepare a revised draft EIS or supplemental EIS subject to public comment that corrects the NEPA violations identified by the plaintiffs; and enjoin further construction and operation of the Cumberland combined cycle plant until TVA has complied with NEPA.  TVA filed an amended answer on September 14, 2023.  On February 13, 2024, the plaintiffs filed a motion to complete the administrative record that TVA submitted in support of the EIS for this project, alleging that the administrative record submitted by TVA is incomplete.  The magistrate judge issued an order granting in part and denying in part the plaintiffs' motion to complete the administrative record.  TVA subsequently filed a motion challenging the magistrate judge's ruling, and TVA's motion is pending before the court
