The Complaint filed simultaneously with the Consent Decree was brought by the United States against Nevada Power Company (‘‘Nevada Power’’) pursuant to Sections 113(b) and 167 of the Clean Air Act (the ‘‘Act’’), 42 U.S.C. 7413(b) and 7477, seeking injunctive relief and civil penalties for violations of the preconstruction permitting program required by the Prevention of Significant Deterioration (‘‘PSD’’) provisions of the Act, 42 U.S.C. 7470– 92, and the federally enforceable State Implementation Plan (‘‘SIP’’) of Clark County, Nevada. The Complaint alleges that, in 1992, Nevada Power modified, and thereafter operated, two combustion turbines designated as Units 5 and 6 at its Clark Generating Station (‘‘Clark Station’’) in Las Vegas, Nevada without first obtaining a PSD pre-construction permit and a Title V Operating Permit authorizing the modification and the subsequent operation of these units, and without installing and operating the ‘‘Best Available Control Technology’’ to control emissions of oxides of nitrogen (‘‘NOx’’). The proposed Consent Decree would require Nevada Power to reduce NOx emissions through, among other things, the installation of pollution control technologies on Units 5 and 6 and on two additional combustion turbines at Clark Station, designated as Units 7 and 8. In addition, the proposed Consent Decree would require Nevada Power to fund $400,000 of solar arrays in Las Vegas.
