Materials in The Moapa Band of Paiute Indians v. Nevada Power:
No. 114 – Order Granting Joint Motion to Approve Settlement
The settlement includes $4.3 million to the Tribe and requires defendants to shutdown the last Reid Gardner Plant by 2018. Four power stations had been running since the 60s to power the Las Vegas Valley, but were considered the dirtiest in the country and fined heavily by regulators for spewing coal ash dust. The last working plant is next to the Tribe’s reservation.
