Congresswoman Harriet Hageman held a town hall meeting Thursday night at the White Mountain Library in Rock Springs. Representative Hageman began the town hall with her recap of the latest developments in Congress and ended with an audience Q&A.

Hageman said that when elected, she promised to do a town hall meeting in every Wyoming county yearly. Last year, she finished her tour of Wyoming by June; this year, she said it will probably take a little bit longer because “there is so much going on back in Washington, DC, in terms of budget.”

Wyoming U.S. Republican Rep. Harriet Hageman wants to transfer ownership of a federally controlled, unused hydropower plant in Fremont County to a local Wyoming irrigation district.

The manager of the irrigation district told Cowboy State Daily that it could sell power from the hydropower plant, built in 1925, once it assumes ownership from the federal government. The surplus power sales could help the district defray some of the rising water expenses for its alfalfa hay, corn and sugar beet customers in the region.
