Dear Editor/Publisher:
If your publication, radio or television station offers a calendar of
community events, you may want to include news of the following
workshop.
Energy Commission staff will conduct a data response and issue
resolution workshop to discuss the proposed Inland Empire Energy Center
as follows:

Trumble Road
Perris, California

During the workshop staff will discuss the applicant's data responses
in technical areas that include air quality, hazardous materials, land
use, noise, and public health. The workshop will also give staff an
opportunity to resolve all outstanding issues. *In addition, staff will
explain how it analyzes each of these technical areas and how it
approaches issues of environmental justice.
The Inland Empire Energy Center would be a 670-megawatt, natural
gasfired, combined cycle power plant located near Romoland in Riverside

Jacinto Road to the east, Antelope Road to the west, and the Burlington
