Purpose of the meeting
DEQ will convene a public hearing on a draft amendment to a Prevention of Significant Deterioration Permit for Virginia Electric and Power Company's Greensville County Power Station. Virginia Electric and Power Company has applied for a permit amendment to modify the Greensville County Power Station. The facility will be classified as a major source of air pollution and will be located at 2500 Rogers Road, just west of Emporia, Virginia. This amendment will be to update the rated capacities of the ancillary equipment to be built at the facility. Facility-wide emissions are decreasing. The revised maximum annual emissions of air pollutants from the facility are expected to be: 188.4 tons of PM10, 187.9 tons of PM2.5, 878.5 tons of CO, 369.0 tons of NOx, 56.5 tons of SO2, 646.8 tons of VOC, 29.8 tons of H2SO4, 5,782,968 tons of CO2e, 0.18 tons of acrolein, 6.5 tons of formaldehyde, 1.2 lbs of beryllium, 106.6 lbs of cadmium, 135.2 lbs of chromium, 48.6 lbs of lead, 25.2 lbs of mercury, and 204 lbs of nickel. Modeling has shown that the proposed power station does not cause or significantly contribute to a predicted violation of any applicable NAAQS, Class I or Class II PSD increment.The comment period on the draft permit amendment began on March 8, 2017 and ends on April 27, 2017. In addition an informational briefing will be held prior to the public hearing from 5:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.
