CDC mask advisory gets tepid Montana response

Twenty-one Montana counties have COVID-19 transmission rates high enough to trigger the CDC advisory for vaccinated people to again mask up to stem the risk of infection. But Sean Lynch was having none of it.
Lynchâs live music venue, The Pub Station, only recently reopened after being shuttered for 14 months because of the pandemic. He had supported that closure realizing that without a vaccine available, large crowds increased the risk of the sickness and death.

The investigation will focus on whether PSCâs decisions about not billing customers for replacement power related to Colstrip shutdowns hurt NorthWestern Energyâs bond rating, as well as how not being billed affected customers.
Most recently, commissioners disallowed customers being billed $6 million for replacement power stemming from 77-days in the summer of 2018 during which Colstrip Units 3 and 4 couldnât meet mercury air toxics standards because of hazardous air pollutant levels. Commissioners concluded that costs were avoidable had NorthWestern managed the situation differently.
