Xcel Energy has volunteered to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement on its plans for the disposal of coal ash produced after 2009 by the A.S. King Electric Generating Plant (King Plant) in Oak Park Heights. Xcel Energy’s preferred alternative is disposal in a new landfill facility in West Lakeland Township, Washington County. The Scoping Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) document was released to the public on August 28, 2006 and the public comment period lasted until October 26, 2006. (Note: Originally, the comment period was to be 30 days. The MPCA agreed up front to make it 45 days in response to requests from LUGs, to accommodate their monthly meeting schedule. The MPCA extended the comment period another 15 days when people told the agency at the public scoping meeting that they had not been on the mailing list and so did not get the SEAW at the beginning of the comment period.
