DENVER (AP) — Hundreds of people have signed up to tell the Environmental Protection Agency what they think of proposed rules to cut pollution from power plants during public hearings in Denver.

Representatives from coal mines, electric utilities, labor unions, environmental groups, renewable energy companies, government agencies and religious and civil rights organizations are among the 400 people who plan to speak in Denver.Read more on NewsOK.com
