The California Energy Resources and Development Commission reviewed the Notice of Intention For Certification for a 400 MW combined-cycle power plant to be built in the San Francisco Bay area. Information is included on evaluation procedures; proposed plant description; comparison of sites; noise, air, and water pollution aspects; fuels; economics; power demand forecasts; potential for co-generation; and reliability and safety. The Commission committee recommended approval of Pacific Gas and Electric Company's (PG and E) Notice of Intention for the combined cycle, but expressed serious doubts that the Applicant will be able to comply, during Application for Certification (AFC) proceedings, with air quality standards which comport with federal and state law.
