Ventura County APCD Preliminary Determination of Compliance (PDOC)

 

In accordance with Ventura County APCD Rule 26.9, “New Source Review- Power Plants”, and Rule 26.7, “New Source Review - Notification”, notice is hereby given that a final decision has been made to issue a Preliminary Determination of Compliance (PDOC) to the Mission Rock Energy Center (Application No. 08308-100). This project proposes the installation of a nominal 275 megawatt natural gas-fired simple-cycle gas turbine power plant at 1025 Mission Rock Road near Santa Paula, CA.

 

This project is expected to meet the requirements of Rule 26, “New Source Review”, and all other applicable VCAPCD rules and regulations, including applicable state and federal requirements that the VCAPCD enforces. However, the proposed project does not currently meet the emission offset requirements of Rule 26.2, “New Source Review – Requirements”. The project requires offsets for nitrogen oxides (NOx) that have not yet been identified. The PDOC includes conditions required to ensure compliance with all applicable requirements, including the NOx emission offset requirements of Rule 26.2.B.

 

Prior to the issuance of the VCAPCD Final Determination of Compliance for this project, Mission Rock Energy Center, LLC has stated that they will provide Emission Reduction Credits (ERCs) to comply with the emission offset requirements of Rule 26.2. When NOx ERCs are provided that meet the requirements of Rule 26.2, the VCAPCD will provide a notification on the California Energy Commission Docket Log 15-AFC-02 for public review and comment prior to the issuance of the Final Determination of Compliance.

 

Documents pertaining to this Preliminary DOC are linked on the VCAPCD website below. Any interested person may view said documents and submit written comments. Written comments must be submitted by no later than December 7, 2017 to Kerby E. Zozula, Engineering Division Manager, of the VCAPCD at 669 County Square Drive, Ventura, California, 93003.
