Valmont Coal Plant - Air Permit Hearing July 14th

July 14, 2009: There will be a crucial Air Permit hearing for the Valmont coal plant in Boulder, CO. When deciding whether to renew or deny the plant's operating permit, the CO Air Quality Control Commission will consider the health impact of emissions such as mercury, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide. They will be taking oral and written comments during the hearing. Most importantly - now that the EPA has proposed regulating greehouse gases in the wake of a 2007 Supreme Court decision - the commission could also consider the impact of Valmont's carbon dioxide emissions, estimated at 7 million pounds per day.
