Duke Energy's [[Gallagher Generating Station]] is located in the town of New Albany, across the river from Louisville, Kentucky. The majority of the African American population living within a 3 mile radius of the power plant are in an income bracket which is substantially lower than the rest of the community, raising issues around [[environmental justice and coal]]. Gallagher is among over 100 [[coal plants near residential areas]].<ref>Jacqui Patterson, [http://climatejusticeinitiative.wordpress.com/ "Day VIII Clearing the Air Road Tour—Hammond, IN—State Line Plant"] NAACP Climate Justice Initiative, April 21, 2010.</ref>
