General Description of Project
Mountainview Power Plant Project is a 1,056 megawatt
power plant project proposed for San Bernardino County. The
original project proponent was Thermo Ecotek and the Application For
Certification was filed with the Commission on February 1,
2000. AES then purchased the power from Thermo Ecotek.
In April 2003, Intergen (a Shell-Bechtel venture) purchased the Mountainview Project
from AES. Ownership of Mountainview Power LLC, later changed hands to Southern California Edison.
AES started construction September 2001, it was suspended, but SCE recommenced in March 2004.
Energy Commission Facility Certification Process
The Energy Commission is the lead agency under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has a certified regulatory program under CEQA. Under its certified program, the Energy Commission is exempt from having to prepare an environmental impact report. Its certified program, however, does require environmental analysis of the project, including an analysis of alternatives and mitigation measures to minimize any significant adverse effect the project may have on the environment.
