Oklahoma GRDA Contract Opposed as Unholy Alliance
Oklahoma opponents including nine rural electric cooperatives and the Oklahoma Farmers Union urge the state Supreme Court to void the GRDA Public Service pact.

The case targets construction of the Markham Ferry Dam and bonds, with briefs to follow and deadlines set for replies.
