This week on A Closer Look with the Monitor, reporter Jacob Orledge talks to host Craig Blumenshine about why state officials recently highlighted the Missouri River as the state's best source of water for potential nuclear energy projects. Orledge also discusses his new reporting about turnover on the Ethics Commission and the results of an informal survey on ethics in government distributed by the commission. A Closer Look with the Monitor is a partnership with Prairie Public’s Main Street program.
