Note: Jason Hayes, ACC Communications Director, will take part in a modertated discussion with a representative of the Sierra Club's Beyond Coal Campaign. They will discuss the topic of "clean coal" in the final afternoon session of the first day.

The Lewis & Clark Law School website describes the Greening the Grid conference,

Development of renewable energy sources has become one of the major political and legal issues of our time. Due to concerns related to climate change, energy independence, and escalating fuel and electricity prices, many policymakers, environmental advocates, and entrepreneurs have called for the United States to adopt a new national energy policy that promotes use of renewable energy sources. However, others argue that renewable energy sources will never adequately meet the country’s escalating energy needs. This conference will explore the ongoing debate regarding the U.S. energy policies and consider how the country may revise its energy system to promote sustainable energy sources.

Click here to learn more about the Women's Mining Coalition

It’s an important time to be seen and heard in Washington, DC. Please commit yourself or someone on your staff to participant in this year’s WMC Fly-In. The Women’s Mining Coalition needs your participation in the 17th Annual Fly-In to Washington, DC. Each year between 30 and 40 WMC representatives visit with member of Congress and their staff to inform them about critical mining and energy issues and to provide a personal, female perspective on the importance of mining to our families, communities and nation.


The women participating in the fly-in live and work in communities throughout the U.S. These women represent the many sectors of the mining industry; hard rock, coal, construction materials, manufacturing, transportation, and utility, energy and service companies—and many job functions-environmental managers, geologist, engineers, equipment operators, plant personnel and administrative staff.

We need women who can talk about their jobs—what they do, why it’s important to them, why they feel they’re making a contribution to our nation’s energy and economic well being. We need you!

From the McCloskey event brochure,

By the time the McCloskey European Coal Outlook Conference
kicks off in Nice in May, the global financial and industrial crisis will
have wrought casualties through all sectors – sectors including the
industry’s customers, suppliers and traders, and in the coal
producing industry itself.

By then cold reality will enable some cool thinking to emerge. How has the coal sector been hit? Production? Demand? And, of course, price?

But we will be where we will be and life will proceed. Power will be generated; iron will be made; products will sail the oceans.

By May we’ll have a greater understanding of what is happening now –
and more of a glimmer of what will happen next.

NSR Standards & Triggers
Hosted by the ACC’s Pre-Combustion Alliance

 

Presented by AECOM Environment (www.aecom.com)

AECOM is a global provider of professional technical and management support services to a broad range of markets, including transportation, facilities, environmental and energy.

  • Bill Campbell, P.E., Senior Regional Program Manager
  • Bob Iwanchuk, Certified Consulting Meteorologist, Manager Air Quality Studies
  • Bob Fraser, Senior Technical Director-Power Generation Services

Program

  • NSR Overview ~ History & Status
  • NSR Standards Today
  • What Triggers NSR
  • NSR Implications for Treated Fuels & Beneficiated Coal

Congress established the New Source Review Permitting Program as part of the 1977 Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAA) with the intent of ensuring that “air quality is not significantly degraded from the addition of new and modified factories, industrial boilers and power plants.”

The program has been subject over the years to widely varying and often contradictory interpretations.  On April 24, 2009, EPA announced that it would again reconsider certain aspects of the NSR Permitting Program.

As industrial and utility coal consumers examine the strategic merits and tactical considerations associated with burning various fuels.  Assessing fuel flexibility options ~ including the use of treated, enhanced or beneficiated coals ~ requires a better understanding of the implications of NSR.
