Greg Sweek Tax Collector Morrow County First Publication 9-12-12 Date of Second Publication 9-19-12 Published: September 12 and 19, 2012 Affidavit i The Oregon Department of Energy' PUBLIC NOTICE Perennial Wind Chaser Station Amended Notice of Intent Summary Date this Notice was Issued: Sept 19. 2012 Proposal: 412 megawatt natural gas-fired electric generation project with two 230-kilovolt (kY) transmission line options. Location: Twenty acres in Umatilla County near the intersection of Westland Road. 1-84. and 1-82. w ith two transmission line options to the Longhorn substation just east of Boardman. Notice of Intent Public Comment Deadline: Oct. 19, 2012(5 p.m.) Expected Date o f Application for Site Certificate: March 2013 Introduction The Oregon Department of Energy, which serves as staff to the Energy Facility Siting Council, has received an amended Notice o f Intent from Perennial Power Holdings, Inc., to file an application for the construction and operation of a natural gas-powered electric generating facility near Hermiston on approximately 20 acres of private land. The proposed facility, the Perennial Wind Chaser Station, will have a nominal generating capacity of about 412 megawatts. The amended nolice o f intent, subm itted to the departm ent in Septem ber 2012, describes design changes that have been made to the proposed facility since the submittal o f the original notice o f intent fo r the project (submitted in May 2012). According to Oregon law. Perennial Power Holdings. Inc. must obtain approval (a site certificate) from the council before building and operating the Perennial Wind Chaser Station. Description of Proposed Project The project will include up to four General Electric LMS100 (or equivalent) natural gas-fired turbines. The project will also include either a 17.9-mile, 230-kilovolt transmission line south of the Umatilla Chemical Depot, or a 20-mile, 230-kilovolt transmission line routed to the north of the Umatilla Chemical Depot. Both transmission line options would connect the project to the Longhorn substation near Boardman. In addition to the generating turbines and 230-kilovolt transmission line, the facility will include the following related or supporting facilities: a raw water line, a wastewater line, a sanitary wastewater line routed under the railroad track, and a five-mile natural gas supply line routed in an existing right of way. The primary changes to the Wind Chaser Station described in the amended N O l are the removal o f the proposed switchyard, as well as the elimination o f the original transmission line options and the addition o f two new transmission line options. Location of Proposed Project The proposed Perennial Wind Chaser Station will be located on Exclusive Farm Use-zoned land in western Umatilla County adjacent to the existing Hermiston Generating Plant. Council’s Review Process The council’s site certificate review process is a consolidated perm itting process that incorporates applicable regulations of other state agencies and local jurisdictions, including Morrow and Umatilla counties. However, the applicant may choose to meet the land use standard by obtaining local land use approval through Morrow and Umatilla counties. W hat is a Notice of Intent? The notice of intent introduces the project and allows the public, local governments and affected agencies to identify issues of concern as well as applicable requirements. It contains preliminary information about the proposed facility, its location, and its potential environmental and community impacts. The NOI is not the actual application to construct the facility, only a notice to the department and the public that the applicant intends to submit an application for a site certificate. The actual application contains much more detail than the NOI. The applicant has provided an amended N O Ifor this project because o f changes made to the proposed transmission corridors. Comment Period Public comments on the NOI are encouraged to help the applicant identify issues and concerns early in the process. Comments, which are due by Oct. 19,2012 at 5 p.m., must be submitted in writing by mail, e-mail, hand-delivery or fax. Please address to: Mo Walker, Siting Officer Oregon Department of Energy 395 E. Highland Avenue Hermiston, OR 97838 E-mail: mo.walker@odoe.state.or.us Fax: 541-567-6861 Phone:541-567-3840 Please Note: This is only the first opportunity to provide comments.

For More Information Please contact the siting officer above if you have questions or would like more information. Members of the public are welcome to visit the department's Hermiston office with questions.
