Editing Enron (section)

==== Projects ====
Enron International constructed power plants and pipelines across the globe. Some are presently still operating, including the massive [[Teesside Power Station|Teesside plant]] in England. Others, like a barge-mounted plant off Puerto Plata in the Dominican Republic, cost Enron money through lawsuits and investment losses.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Enron's Empire {{!}} corpwatch|url=https://www.corpwatch.org/article/enrons-empire|access-date=2022-02-20|website=www.corpwatch.org}}</ref> Puerto Plata was a barge-mounted power plant next to the hotel ''Hotelero del Atlantico''. When the plant was activated, winds blew soot from the plant onto the hotel guests' meals, blackening their food. The winds also blew garbage from nearby slums into the plant's water-intake system. For some time the only solution was to hire men who would row out and push the garbage away with their paddles.<ref name="mclean" /> Through mid-2000 the company collected a paltry $3.5&nbsp;million from a $95&nbsp;million investment.<ref name="mclean" /> Enron also had other investment projects in Europe, Argentina, [[Brazil]], Bolivia, [[Colombia]], Mexico, [[Jamaica]], Venezuela, elsewhere in South America and across the [[Caribbean]].<ref name="mclean" />
