From Times Staff Reports
The California Energy Commission on Tuesday recommended approval of a $75-million power plant for Riverside’s city utility.

The recommendation will be final after a 30-day comment period.
The utility still needs clearances from city planners and state water, wildlife and air-quality officials.
