Jim, Christi:
Attached is the final public notice for the proposed Gallup generation plant in New Mexico. This notice was published in a local newspaper yesterday, May 9th. It provides a good description of the project, its location and estimated emissions. The actual permit application will be filed with the agency today. The following are few things to keep in mind as we respond to inquires from concerned citizens: The plant will consist of a number of reciprocating engines each producing less than 3 MW. The plant will be a 50 MW plant fired with either natural gas or diesel oil The plant will be a minor source of air pollution. The plant will not be subject to the EPA Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD). Annual emissions of any criteria pollutant will not exceed 250 tons per year. The plant will be a minor source of Hazardous air pollutants. The plant will not be subject to Federal Clean Air Act Section 112(g) for hazardous air pollutants. There are no New Source Performance standards applicable to the site The plant will be exempt from the EPA acid rain program. None of the engines serves a generator < 25 MW By way of dispersion modeling, we are demonstrating that the plant will not significantly impact the state or national ambient air quality standards. The plant will operate as a peaker plant with limited hours of operation per year. Please forward any environmental questions to me. Commercial and legal questions should go to Marc Pana and Andrew Ralston. Thanks for your help. Gus
