Sixteen counties in western Colorado are urging Governor Ritter to oppose a proposed coal fired power plant on the Navajo Indian Reservation. They want him to do so before the October 9th deadline for comments on the project’s environmental impact statement. The counties say emissions from the plant would make air quality in the four corners region worse than it already is. Bente Birkeland reports from Denver.
