The Colorado Air Quality Control Commission made its unanimous decision Wednesday to reverse plans after lobbying from utility companies. Commissioner Jana Milford said the agency’s November decision had been made based on incomplete information.
The three plants that were to be closed by 2029 were the Craig Unit 3, the Platte River Power Authority’s Rawhide plant and the Ray D. Nixon Plant, the Colorado Sun reported. Many utility companies have pledged to close coal-powered plants by 2030, but that promise is not bound by law. ....
