Lake Chelan levels to drop to prepare for work on the hydropower dam

Lake Chelan may be lower than recent years in spring 2027 because of planned maintenance at the Lake Chelan Dam. Both generating units at the Lake Chelan powerhouse are scheduled to be out of service in April and part of May. During this time, water can pass through the dam to the Chelan River, but not through the powerhouse. To prepare for the outage, Chelan PUD may potentially lower the lake about a foot below Chelan PUD’s typical target elevation by April.

Longtime Central WA lawmaker and state official Sid Morrison dies at age 93

Former state lawmaker and congressman Sid Morrison, who was known for his decades of public service in Central Washington, died Tuesday at age 93. He helped shape policy over a wide range of issues, including agriculture, energy, water, transportation and education, according to his obituary and information from the state House of Representatives. He served in the state House for eight years, and then spent six years in the state Senate before he was elected as a Republican to the U.S. House representing the 4th District.

Quincy data centers bring jobs, new hospital and new high school, but also spark power concerns

Quincy, Wash. — Quincy's long-running push for data centers has brought jobs, tax revenue, a new hospital and a new high school, while also fueling concerns about water, farmland and a planned high-voltage transmission line. NonStop Local spoke with residents and officials in Quincy to get a closer look at what operating data centers mean for that community. At L and R Cafe II, owner Ibis Ortiz says main street businesses, like hers, are doing well in Quincy. "Probably our biggest in the morning is our breakfast burritos," said Ibis Ortiz.
