According to Duke, the project has met and exceeded environmental and community requirements and gained support of Maricopa's county supervisors.Duke said that during the 18-month construction period, the project will generate some 500construction-related jobs. When it's finished, a permanent staff of about 25 employees will operate and maintain the plant.Gov.
