Navajo man returns home to fight power plant Bookmark and Share

By Leslie Linthicum
Burnham, New Mexico (AP)

If you drive through here on the road that connects Gallup and Shiprock, you’ll see stretches of tawny dirt and a whole lot of empty.

It’s the place a Houston-based power company decided would be perfect for a huge, twin-tower 1,500-megawatt coal-fired power plant. The company called it Desert Rock, a name that embodies desolation.
