Cochise County Supervisor Paul Newman will hold a town hall meeting providing an opportunity for public comment on the planned Bowie Power Plant project. The meeting will be from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. on Aug. 14 at the Board of Supervisors Hearing Room, 1415 Melody Lane, Building G, in Bisbee.
This town hall is an opportunity for the public to learn about this project, a clean-coal fueled 600-megawatt plant planned to open in 2012. Bowie Power Station will be based on a clean-coal technology called integrated gasification combined cycle. The town hall will include an overview and history of the Arizona project as well as a history of a similar project in Minnesota, the Mesaba Energy Project, presented by representatives from Minnesota and Colorado. Also invited are representatives from state agencies, including the corporation commission, the Department of Environmental Quality and the Residential Utility Consumer Office.
