Navajo Nation officials on Tuesday filed new opposition to a plan to pump groundwater from near the Little Colorado River and flood hundreds of acres of tribal land to generate electricity for cities in the Southwest.
Save the Confluence sent a letter March 4 to a federal commission asking to deny a feasibility study for a pumped-hydro dam near the Lower Little Colorado River in Western Navajo Nation.
A federal regulatory commission is giving people with an interest in the proposed Big Canyon Pumped Storage Project in Western Navajo Nation a month to submit comments about a pending preliminary permit.
Some of you may remember the hard fought battle with the proposed Escalade resort that we Grassroots People of The Confluence area were forced to be involved in which culminated in a resounding defeat for the developers.
