General Description of Project

March 25, 2005, Supplement A, an amendment to the Application for Certification for the San Francisco project, was filed with the California Energy Commission. The amendment changes the location of the project and presents other pertinent information. The City and County of San Francisco (CCSF) initially planned to construct and operate a simple cycle power plant at the Mirant Corporation?s existing Potrero Power Plant site. Supplement A changes the project location to a 4-acre site owned by CCSF that lies approximately south of 25th Street and approximately 700 feet east of Illinois Street. The new site is approximately 1/4 mile south of the Potrero site originally proposed.

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.
