The Navajo Generating Station near Page, Arizona.

Wednesday on The Show, we heard about a proposal in Congress that would essentially force the Navajo Generating Station to stay open, and some of the challenges with making that happen.

But now we’ll hear from a clean water advocate who has a lot of concerns with the plant.

Nicole Horseherder lives on Black Mesa, near the Peabody Energy operation there. She recently co-wrote a letter to the owners of two prospective buyers of the Navajo Generating Station expressing some of those concerns.

Mark Brodie is a co-host of The Show, KJZZ’s locally produced news magazine. Since starting at KJZZ in 2002, Brodie has been a host, reporter and producer, including several years covering the Arizona Legislature, based at the Capitol.
