impact of the electric paower plant that was in lauglin, nevada on the bullhead city arizona enviroment?

Answer 1

Not much. The prevailing winds are from the west or southwest during monsoon season, so whatever may spew out will hit you guys first--but most of what comes out of the tall stacks is carbon dioxide and goes into a higher layer of air than that which you are likely to breathe. What comes out the smaller squat things, that smoke-like stuff, is steam, it looks like it is billowing clouds because it is. You won't get sick from it. You are fine, the power plants today aren't the same, dirty things they were a half-century or more ago.

Answer 2

When I was there, which was many years ago now, there were no campgrounds. And not all of the casinos' were in yet. We found a great motel on the Bullhead City side. It seemed to be the newest. We found that eating all but breakfast on the Laughlin side was the best for the money, since they have buffets in the casinos, so there is a wide variety. And the cost is a bargain compared to the restaurant menu prices. I won a couple of small wins on the one armed bandits. But instead of walking away, I fed it back in. It didn't take long to loose it, but it was exciting, to try to win more. I don't remember much about Bullhead. Other than there were alot of motels. The area had been known to fisherman far and wide for years. I remember we went into a collectibles shop and I found a couple of pieces of red blown glass to add to my collection. I remember that taking the boat shuttle across from Bullhead to Laughlin was one of the more fun aspects of the visit. Those high speed boats whip you over in such a short amount of time. And the spray of the water feels so good on a summer day, you don't mind at all. But unless you already have gone, you are facing hells' kitchen this time of year already. People only get out, if and when they have to. Air conditioners run and night and day, or you can't breathe. The air is heavy with humidity. So people have to get out in the morning, or in the later evening. I think it would be very miserable, having to live there all the time, except for the month of winter.
