There have been a LOT of meetings on this. I attended some. It is snagged in between Navajos vs Hopis, traditionalists vs progressives, state vs federal, etc. The only constant has been the eco-freaks.

Stakes in the operation have been sold recently so someone sees a future in the plant. It will shut down and that should have a focusing effect on a bunch of people. This baby is too big to let go. Las Vegas will lose 6% of their power but new gas plants are coming online. The big loser will be SoCal.

Your first hand information of 13,000 - 14,000 tons/day makes sense. Mohave must have been base loaded since forever.

"Stakes in the operation have been sold recently so someone sees a future in the plant." Paragraph is interesting, and for sure southern California will get the short end.

That will get some political noise going! Excuses! Finger pointing! Politicians in high dudgeon! Evil Capitalists! Greed! Oppression of the weak! Self righteous "environmentalists"!
