Chapter 173-406 WAC - Acid Rain Regulation/Electric Generating Unit Rule

Chapter 173-400 WAC - General Regulation for Air Pollution Sources

This rulemaking proposes to adopt requirements for mercury emissions from coal-fired power plants into Chapter 173-400 WAC and Chapter 173-406 WAC. This action will also change the name of Chapter 173-406 WAC and replace the current requirements by reference of the federal requirements.

On September 13, 2006, power supplier Energy Northwest submitted an application to Energy Facility Site Evaluation Council (EFSEC) to construct a 600 MW Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle coal-fired power plant. This project is called the Pacific Mountain Energy Center.
