Hope for Colowyo Mine?
Author: dendavis

Editorial in today's Denver Post notes that the Feds have released the court-mandated reworking of the environmental assessment for the expansion permit for the Colowyo Mine in NW CO, and the report found "no significant impact."  Now it is up to the judge to accept or reject the report, so the fat lady has yet to sing.  But, hope springs eternal.

Depends what type of coal it is and what it's use would be to the buyer.

It's essentially a captive mine with all production going to Tri-State Generation & Transmission's Craig Station.
