PETITION OPPOSING
PROPOSED GF COAL PLANT
TO: Great Falls City Commissioners Cascade
County Commissioners
Montana
DEQ U.S.
Department of Agriculture
Senator
Conrad Burns Senator Max Baucus Rep. Dennis Rehberg
WE,
THE UNDERSIGNED, wish to voice our opposition to the proposed Great Falls coal
plant (Highwood Station). We are
opposed to the building of any coal plant; we believe that the City of Great
Falls would be better served by developing various renewable energy resources
such as wind and solar power, and filling additional power needs by entering
into long-term power contracts with the owners of the dams in Great Falls. In light of global warming, we believe
it is irresponsible to build a plant which contributes to global warming and
which may not be economical to operate in the future.
If
a coal plant is to be built, we insist that it actually be the best available
technology, to minimize or eliminate pollution and greenhouse gasses, and
mitigate costs by creating salable byproducts. We believe Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) is
the technology to use. Please
return this petition to Citizens for Clean Energy (CCE), 615 3rd
Ave. N., Great Falls, MT 59401, by 8/10/2006.
