Mirant May Shut 2 Generators in State

Mirant Corp., a U.S. power plant owner that emerged from bankruptcy protection Jan. 3, said it might shut down a pair of electricity generators near San Francisco because the company lacked a contract for the power.

Atlanta-based Mirant filed a 90-day notice to California regulators of its intent to shut the Pittsburg 7 and Contra Costa 6 units, the company said.
