GILLETTE, Wyo. (AP) — Luca Technologies Inc. has laid off nine Gillette-based employees and the company has temporarily shut down its coal-bed methane wells in the Powder River Basin.
The layoffs follow the U.S. Bureau of Land Management’s decision to deny Luca’s application to use bacteria to produce methane from the northeast Wyoming coal beds.
