Sunflower plant in Kansas could draw water fight
Sunflower Electric Power plans a coal plant in Finney County, Kansas, that would use about 3.9 billion gallons of water annually. Critics warn the project may export water from the Ogallala Aquifer while supporters say it uses water no more than agriculture. Water rights are held by Wheatland Electric Cooperative, a Sunflower partner, with the project needing a water use permit from the state.

American Legion bat closes in Garden City over funds
The Harry H. Renick Post No. 9 basement club ends daily operations as of Saturday due to insufficient funds to pay staff and utilities. Aging memberships, a smoking ban impact, bingo losses to a casino, and stalled ADA access project compound financial strain, with fewer patrons and rising costs.
