The head of Colorado’s Department of Public Health and Environment says the state opposes fast-tracking a permit for a proposed coal-fired power plant in New Mexico.

In a letter to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Jim Martin said the agency should not make a final decision on an air-permit application for the $3 billion Desert Rock plant, south of Farmington, N.M., until environmental impacts are fully addressed.

EPA has said it will act on the permit by July 31.
