>> Lets see if I get this right.
Dept. of interior issues a permit 10 years ago, which causes investors to risk millions of dollars to build mines which positively affect the lives of tens of thousands of people by creating jobs and fuel for a power plant. Fast forward 10 years and some eco terrorists find an Obama appointed judge to rescind the permit and the only protection these tens of thousands of people have is the Dept. of interior, IF it decides to act on their behalf, can challenge this judges ruling?
If ever there was a case for giving federal scum the finger and going on with business as usual this is it. <<

He promised he would destroy the coal and electric production industries.

220 people working at Colowyo, some 180 more at the Trapper Mine, and 300 at the power plant, coal is the economic backbone of the region
Toss in another 200+ from Twenty mile and maybe 100 from the 2 unit Hayden Station that live in Moffat County, the rest in Rio Blanco and Routt. Add those bread winners to the ColoWyo, Trapper, and 3 unit Craig Station employment and that's a big hit on a 15k population.

It’s many of your own neighbors with big government incomes and delusions about how much their properties are worth. They want to drive out all of the “riff-raff” (people who produce).
Here’s one piece of advice. Those of you in developments with large lots, fence your places. A little work won’t kill you. Stop talking about ranching in CO. Most of those folks aren’t really ranchers. Most of the real ranchers have already been robbed and have moved on. The ranching publicity is part of the big tourism draw and bait for the federal government (not to mention a bragging point for those fat with debt/revenues and cash flow from big entertainment).
Talk about farming in CO instead. Dress downscale during the summer. Shed pretenses. Find out who your neighbors are. Try wearing occasionally wearing overalls to town. Attend a county commissioners’ meeting once in a while. You might be shocked at how communistic (and stoned) at least some of them are.
Republican and Democrat, they’re lefties, and they’re local. Otherwise, your counties wouldn’t be so regulated up and obsessed with nonexistent property values. Focus on bringing property taxes down, too.
Oh...we’ll see you’uns around, ya hear?
