The Arizona Corporation Commission will hold a series of five virtual town halls next week to take public comment on the impacts of the closure of coal-fired power plants on local communities.
The meetings, which follow in-person town halls held in affected communities including Page, St. Johns and Tuba City, start with a session at 6 p.m. Monday, Aug. 8, with additional sessions at 1 p.m. on Aug. 9; at 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. on Aug. 10; and at 3 p.m. on Aug. 11.

Regulators are trying to soften the economic impact of closures and planned closures of coal-fired power plants including TEP’s Springerville Generating Station in eastern Arizona.
