WASHINGTON - Two solar projects planned on federal and tribal lands in Clark County are being put on a fast track as part of the Obama administration's latest push behind green energy in the West.

Bureaucrats will devote fresh attention to the Moapa Solar Energy Center, a proposed 200-megawatt plant on 2,000 acres of the Moapa River Indian Reservation, the White House plans to announce on today.

Also being expedited is the 350-megawatt Silver State South project planned on 13,043 acres near Primm.
