A Washington tax consultant, Eric Cook, and Calvin Kent of Marshall University clash over using the university model to forecast tax changes. Cook says the model suits the state overall but misses effects on low and high income taxpayers. Kent argues the model plus average taxpayer data suffices for December recommendations.

Sun Mountain Judge Allows Coal Digging to Permit Path
Fayette County Circuit Judge John Hatcher issued a temporary restraining order against the state DEP at the request of land owners Paul and Renee Lansat and Sun Mountain Enterprises Inc. He said digging coal on part of the 30 acre Sun Mountain site near Mount Hope may be the only practical option to clear and flatten the land for the planned outdoor amphitheater, with 18 000 to 23 000 tons of coal needing removal before proper surface elevation can be achieved.
