Court backs power plant's use of river

Twenty-six residents, who are members of the Kaeng Khoi Conservation Group, filed a complaint with the court in March 2007.

They asked the court to rule on the validity of the permit granted by the Royal Irrigation Department (RID) to Gulf Power Generation Co, the operator of Kaeng Khoi II power plant in Kaeng Khoi district.
