On
July 9, 2004, the United State Environmental
Protection Agency (USEPA), under a consent
decree, published the revised, Phase II
Rule, aimed to minimize the environmental
impacts from impingement and entrainment
from existing coastal power plants cooling
water intake structure (CWIS). Further,
the State Water Resources Control Board
(State Board) recently reclassified five
(5) of the Los Angeles region nine (9) coastal
power plants from ocean discharge to discharge
into enclosed bays and estuaries (under
the CTR and the SIP).
As
a decision issued by the U.S. Court of Appeals
for the Second Circuit, Riverkeeper v. EPA,
precludes USEPA from applying the Phase
II rule unless and until USEPA takes further
action. On July 9, 2007, in the Federal
Register, the USEPA took a final action
to suspend federal Phase II 316(b) requirements.
