American Gypsum Cogeneration: FAQ

- Who owns American Gypsum Cogeneration?

- Is this the same as American Gypsum Cogeneration LLC?

Project companies are commonly registered as an LLC carrying the plant's name, so a search for "American Gypsum Cogeneration LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
