What are CCPs?
Coal combustion products are the materials created when we burn coal to generate electricity. In 2006, the United States produced nearly 125 million tons of CCPs, comprising fly ash, flue gas desulfurization (FGD) materials, bottom ash, boiler slag and other power plant byproducts. While 43 percent were used beneficially, nearly 70 million tons were disposed.
