Mr. ROuse reintroduced the letter submitted to Council on October 20, 2009 and also mentioned the letter provided to Council at tonight's meeting. Represents NRG and Cabrillo Power. Restated legal infirmities and objections to the action Council is taking. Address the "flaw": first 7-8 of ten years city pushed forward a goal to modernize the existing facility, smaller footprint, encouraged property owner to be host for city's desalination project and one other (get this). Owner surprised at City's turnaround on the goal. CECP is the project that was encouraged by the property owner and thinks this is short sighted. the benefit of CECP are obvious, the CEC staff issued its final staff assessment endorsing the CECP project. demonstrates after independant staff analysis thet the project meets environmental standards is best location for ongoing electrical generation purposes, San Diego Air Pollution Control District issued final compliance. the CECP project allows for the current retirment fo the three less effeciant boiler machine stations. the smaller footprint and lower gas fired generating facility will be located on the 32 acre site west of the railroad tracks. Frees up approx. 60 acres for development. Fulfills the long range vision.
Julie Baker representing Vision of Power came forward to address Council. Feels the siting of two power plants on the coast is unacceptable. Adding the CECP becomes and intense use of the sight. No guarantee if and when Encina will be demolished. Incredibly short-sighted to have a second power plant on the coast. Urged Council to contiune moratorium.
Kerie Segman of Carlsbad came forward to address Council. Thanked Council for taking action to stop the proposed NRG power plant.
