SPR News Today: The trial for three Spokane ICE protesters starts Monday. Here’s what to know.

Today’s headlines:

  • Washington gas prices continue to climb, but a gas tax holiday seems unlikely.
  • Septic systems can threaten groundwater quality. New revenue from Spokane’s Aquifer Protection Area could help fund residents’ septic-to-sewer transitions.
  • Spokane is supposed to collect more compost soon. But there’s nowhere to put it.
  • Adams Elementary School, the oldest school in Spokane, breaks ground on a new chapter.
  • Stevens County resident could soon weigh in on the location of a new jail.

Plus, RANGE’s Erin Sellers joins to talk about what to expect from the upcoming “Spokane 3” trial—that is, the trial for three remaining defendants charged with conspiracy during last summer’s anti-immigration enforcement protest.
