The power plant, along with the Trapper Mine that provides the fuel and is also set to close, have been a major source of high-paying jobs and tax revenue, and TFG will add additional capacity to ongoing efforts in the community to secure opportunities for economic and community development to help replace lost employment and tax base following these retirements.
