Here we go...NO COAL FIRED ELECTRICAL ENERGY PLANTS FOR NEVADA

It is abundantly clear that coal fired power plants are leading generators of not only electrical energy but also toxic heavy metals such as mercury as well as CO2 and other harmful emissions. L.E. Fant believes there should, at least, be a moratorium on construction of any such plants pending technology which makes them totally harmless to our environment and , therefore, our health.

Sierra Pacific/ Nevada Power (now Nevada Energy) apparently plan to build such a plant near Ely as does L.S. Power/ Dynegy and Sithe Global plan a plant near Mesquite.

Back in August, 2007 Harry Reid (Nevada Senator, majority leader) opposed the building of these power plants. We should write/ email him asking that he confirm that stance and cc all our federal and state elected officials. If we all do this our voice of opposition will be heard.

L.E. is, herein, thoughtfully providing a list of contact numbers to assist you in voicing our opposition to coal fired power plants in Nevada (or anywhere for that matter):
