Rulemaking for small power production and cogeneration facilities: qualifying status/rates and exemptions (Dockets No. RM79-54 and RM79-55). Environmental assessment
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:5038977
The Federal action requiring scrutiny under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) is a product of the rules under Section 201 of PURPA, acting together with the rules under Section 210 of PURPA. The environmental effects are not related to the total environmental impacts of the numerous technologies and facilities covered by PURPA, but only that increment of those effects that result from the incentives provided by these rules. Therefore, the environmental assessment concentrates on the PURPA-induced technologies of wind, small-scale hydropower at existing dams, municipal solid waste, and cogeneration. The results of that assessment are summarized in this report.
