JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — The Mississippi Public Service Commission and Mississippi Power Co. have reached a settlement in the company’s lawsuit over a PSC decision to turn down construction charges for a coal-fired power plant in east Mississippi’s Kemper County.

Commissioners voted 2-1 Thursday to approve the settlement with the subsidiary of Atlanta-based Southern Co. However, the state Supreme Court must bless the proposed deal before it becomes official.
