The Missouri Parks Association says the state’s $180-Million settlement with AmerenUE on the Taum Sauk reservoir collapse is not good enough. The Association says the deal does not properly protect a natural area near the reservoir and leaves a proposed KATY trail link between Windsor and Pleasant Hill uncertain.

The Association plans to file comments during the 30-day comment period now open before the settlement becomes permanent.

State parks officials think the trail link plan is okay.
