The Advisory Committee on Shareholder Responsibility will meet Tuesday, primarily to discuss its position on a controversial Arkansas power plant. "It looks like the ACSR is going to come up with something on the plant at this meeting--possibly a letter on the subject," one source close to the ACSR said yesterday.
The ACSR is discussing the plant in response to a request last fall from the Arkansas Community Organization for Reform Now that Harvard uses its stockholder influence to pressure Arkansas Power and Light, the company building the plant, to install special sulfur dioxide emission controls on the plant's smokestacks.
Sources said last month that the ACSR is considering asking the Corporation to tell AP&L and the Arkansas Public Service Commission that Harvard favors the additional emission controls.
