652 Germaine Chappelle – Update on Impacts of Energy Transition Act in Four Corners Region
On this week’s interview Paul talks to Attorney Germaine Chappelle about the Energy Transition Act and some of its real-world impacts in the Four Corners area (current and prospective). Specifically, Chappelle is working on behalf of the Central Consolidated School District (a heavily Navajo district) to make good on the law’s requirements that certain power generation be located within the District’s boundaries for purposes of helping the District’s property tax revenues which saw a 60% reduction due to the closure of San Juan Generating Station.
