Georgia Power is cutting over half of its work force at a coal-fired plant near Rome even as state regulators have been re-examining some of its operations.

The Atlanta utility said 80 jobs are being eliminated at Plant Hammond, a 63-year-old facility on the Coosa River near Rome.

Georgia Power spokesman John Kraft said the plant, which currently has about 140 workers, will remain in operation but will be used as a reserve plant for “reliability and emergency needs,” with about 60 workers remaining.
