Cool water coal gasification program: Environmental Surveillance and Monitoring/Worker Health and Safety Program Plan. Quarterly report (2nd). April 1 through June 30, 1987

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6933467
The Energy Security Act of 1980 established a program to provide financial assistance to private industry in the construction and operation of commercial-scale synthetic fuels plants. The Cool Water Coal Gasification Program was one of the four projects awarded financial assistance. The Program agreed to comply with existing environmental monitoring regulation and to develop an Environmental Monitoring Plan incorporating supplemental monitoring in the areas of water, air, solid waste, worker health and safety, and socioeconomic impacts during the period 1984-1989. As the first commercial-scale integrated gasification combined-cycle plant for generating energy from coal, the plant was designed to process a variety of coals with no liquid discharge, produce nonhazardous solid wastes, and produce very few air emissions. The report describes compliance monitoring and reporting activities conducted in response to the California Energy Commission approved Environmental Surveillance and Monitoring/Worker Health and Safety Program Plan.
