A federal appeals court has hit the brakes on plans for a controversial rail project in eastern Utah. In a unanimous ruling handed down on Friday
SALT LAKE CITY — A federal appeals court has hit the brakes on plans for a controversial rail project in eastern Utah.
"The Board failed to weigh the Project’s uncertain financial viability and the full potential for environmental harm against the transportation benefits it identified," Judge Robert Wilkins wrote in the ruling. Eagle County, Colo., and environmental groups sued over the Uinta Basin Railway Project, which is designed to be a line through eastern Utah's Uintah Basin into Colorado. They argued it would have significant impacts on the Colorado River and communities throughout multiple states.
