Mayoral candidate Nadine Woodward says she opposes the city of Spokane’s renewable energy goal .

Avista Utilties supported the city on the goal of getting 100% of its electricity from renewable resources by the year 2030.

But Woodward told SPR that, in an unpublished study, Avista found that such a plan would be expensive for citizens.

Students in the aviation program at Spokane Community College are the beneficiaries of a huge gift from the Boeing Company.

Boeing has donated a 12-foot tall, 17,000-pound 787 jet engine to the SCC Aviation Maintenance program.

A forum at Gonzaga University Tuesday evening will focus on a class of chemicals that are polluting the Spokane River.

PCBs are man-made chemicals that have been found in the river. They come from various products, including old electrical transformers, and have been determined to be potentially carcinogenic.

Washington state Lands Commissioner Hilary Franz was in Spokane Friday for the opening of a plant she says is pushing the cutting edge of wood manufacturing.

The use of cross laminated timber is a new trend where wood panels are made from gluing layers of solid sawn lumber together.

Washington State Attorney General Bob Ferguson has filed yet another lawsuit against the Trump administration.

The latest lawsuit seeks to prevent the transfer of military construction funding to build the wall at the southern U.S. border.

The funds in question, $89 million, were to have gone for work on a pier at the naval base in Bangor, Washington, where Trident nuclear subs are stationed.

Ferguson said the action violates specific statutes of federal law.
