Type 3 Incident Team Assigned To Iron Peak Fire

An ad hoc Type 3 Incident Team has been assigned operations at the #IronPeakFire burning in the mountains east of Paragonah. The fire remains listed at 400 acres, but fire crews are hoping to more accurately map the blaze today. A chance of rain showers is in the forecast for the area today, and at the very least cloud cover could help firefighters. However, winds are forecast to blow up to 25 miles an hour today, adding to the potential for the fire to grow. Road access is quite limited in the area, but crews are hiking in today to assist. Aviation efforts have been effective at limiting growth of the fire.

Lawmakers Not Sold On Rocky Mountain Power Rate Increase

Rocky Mountain Power wants to increase its rates by some 30 percent over the next two years. State lawmakers told the public utility provider in a meeting yesterday that it needs to first make major organizational changes or have its shareholders take up a portion of the rising costs. Based on their disagreement, it's possible only a portion of the controversial two-year increase proposal will get implemented. The utility says it will give lawmakers a report later this year that addresses restructuring. The rate plan would increase costs by about 15 percent next year and another 15 percent in 2026 if approved. The average customer would get a bill that is about 24-dollars higher each month by the time the second increase kicks in.
