State of Washington Energy Facility Site Evaluation Council EFSEC Standards Development

Krogh & Leonard Report to Jim Luce, Chair, Washington Energy Facility Site Evaluation Council, Regarding EFSEC Standards Development - Sept. 19, 2002

This report contains the work of the Washington Energy Facility Site Evaluation Council (“EFSEC” or the “Council”) Standards Development Group formed in 2001.  Anticipating a formal administrative rulemaking to adopt new thermal electricity generating facility standards, Council chair Jim Luce convened the group to facilitate the rulemaking process by both identifying subjects needing original or revised standards, and discussing and developing proposals for those standards.  The Standards Development Group’s report consists of a narrative paper describing the group’s composition, process and summaries of proposed rules, the proposed rules, the Earl Report  and all of the group’s meeting materials and minutes.  The 2002 report was intended to assist the Council in its formal administrative rulemaking for new standards.
