Bennet Urges Interior Secretary to Help Save Colorado Mining Jobs
Recent Court Ruling Could Leave Over 200 Coloradans Unemployed
May 21, 2015
Colorado U.S. Senator Michael Bennet today urged Interior Secretary Sally Jewell to use any and all tools at her disposal to help save over 200 mining jobs in Moffat County, Colorado. A recent court ruling called into question the environmental assessment completed to approve Colowyo's mining plan in Moffat County. The ruling gave the Interior Department's Office of Surface Mining (OSM) 120 days to correct the deficiencies in its analysis.
