Final environmental impact statement for the proposed Pinon Pine Power Project, Tracy Station, Nevada. Volume 1
Description
Pinon Pine, a proposed 104 MW (gross) demonstration project at Sierra Pacific's Tracy Power Station 17 miles east of Reno NV, would demonstrate Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle for converting coal into clean gas, burning the gas in a combustion turbine to generate electric power, and capturing the heat to drive a steam turbine for additional power. It would use the KRW fluidized-bed gasification process and would also demonstrate the effectiveness of hot gas cleanup. Environmental impacts from Pinon Pine construction are evaluated in this FEIS: detailed analyses are made on air quality, water quality and quantity, the endangered Cui-ui fish species, disposal of spent limestone and coal ash, noise, land use, aesthetics, cultural resources, socioeconomic resources, etc. Mitigation measures are discussed
