BULLETIN
It's going to be a hot day in Colstrip with temperatures climbing to 95 degrees under overcast skies, though air quality remains good. The big story locally continues to be the controversial shutdown of the Colstrip coal plant, with the PSC now investigating whether NorthWestern Energy overcharged ratepayers by $5 million, while plant owners are asking the Supreme Court to challenge federal pollution regulations. Meanwhile, a strategic transaction between Avista and NorthWestern Energy regarding Colstrip assets is underway, and there are ongoing concerns about toxic coal ash management affecting the Northern Cheyenne Tribe.
