http://bowiepower.blogspot.com/2007/09/change-in-direction.html
Saturday, September 1, 2007. It appears SouthWestern Power Group is changing their plans for the Bowie Power Station. However, just this morning we learned that SWPG issued a press release yesterday afternoon, in which they announced their plan that the Bowie Power Station "run solely on clean natural gas".

Tuesday, September 25, 2007. CCIPRA is the Cochise County Individual and Property Rights Association PAC, and they have been very active in getting out information about the planned power plant.

Bowie Power Station: Our chances to speak out and to ask questions
http://bowiepower.blogspot.com/2007/07/our-chance-to-speak-out.html
Monday, July 30, 2007. Our chances to speak out and to ask questions. The Cochise County Board of Supervisors have set a few dates for public or open meetings to discuss the issue of whether Bowie should be the home of a coal gas-fired power plant. It's still not on their online calendar, but informed sources tell me that the following public meetings have been set up. Ultimately, the Supervisors will decide whether or not SWPG gets rezoning - they need that before they can do anything else. Supervis...
