They all want the Secretary(Jewell) to appeal the judge's decision but she says that the Office of Surface Mining, Reclamation, and Enforcement is "on track to address the deficiencies in the Colowyo permit within the 120 day period". The 120 day period was established by the judge. With that report, they have something to appeal on.
But they say that is a govt agency that can't do anything in 120 days, which means the 120 days will run out before Jewell can do anything and the mine will shut and all the minors will lose their paycheck, at least temporarily, and perhaps forever.
If that's what's happening, then they shouldn't need that report before they can have something to appeal on. All they should need is a copy of regulations involved in permitting the power plants.
