[QUOTE="Fritz the Cat, post: 249283, member: 605"] Puget Sound Energy was created about 100 years ago. They serviced Seattle with hydroelectric until that got tapped out so they invested in Coal Strip Montana. Between Puget Sound Energy and Pacific Power and Lighting they built 4 units. They both are moving on. 2 of the 4 boilers are going to be moth balled. Puget Sound Energy has a huge gas line coming in from British Columbia and is building wind farms in Montana. So where does that leave the people living in Coal Strip? Westmoreland Coal is filing for bankruptcy.

Puget Sound Energy is and was going to move on anyway. So is it really necessary for the Native Americans, enviros and Sierra Club to protest? They get all the press and the coal miners get no mention. [url]https://www.knkx.org/post/protesters-rally-against-lng-plant-coal-power-puget-sound-energy-hearing-renton[/url] [/QUOTE]
