Mike DeWine on Wednesday signed House Bill 128, which repeals the cornerstone of the scandal-ridden House Bill 6: a $1 billion-plus bailout of two Northern Ohio nuclear power plants.

As Pelzer explains, the Akron-based utility said it will work with state regulators to determine how much money each customer will get, along with how and when they will get it.
