the Gavin Power Plant on September 11, 2019 in Cheshire, Ohio. In 2002, the company that owns the Gavin Power Plant, American Electric Power, reached a settlement with the town&apos;s residents for $20 million so they would move and not hold the power plant liable for any health issues. A few of the residents stayed in the town while most moved away.
