The Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station is located west of Phoenix. The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power owns 5 percent of the plant and 21 percent of a coal-fired plant on Navajo land to the north. They are right in saying Arizona, as a state, cannot shut off the power to LA, but the state can urge the power companies in Arizona to do so.
