The complaint alleges that Defendants failed to obtain appropriate permits and failed to install and operate required pollution control devices to reduce emissions of various air pollutants at the Kincaid Power Station, a coal-fired power plant in Kincaid, Illinois. The proposed consent decree would resolve past Clean Air Act violations and would require Defendants to reduce harmful emissions of sulfur dioxide (‘‘SO2’’), nitrogen oxides (‘‘NOX’’), and particular matter (‘‘PM’’) at the Kincaid Power Station, as well as the Brayton Point Power Station, a coal-fired power plant located in Somerset, Massachusetts. The reductions would be achieved through emission control requirements and limitations specified by the proposed consent decree, including installation and operation of pollution controls and annual emission caps. In addition, the proposed consent makes permanent the retirement of the State Line Power Station, a recently shut down coal-fired power plant in Hammond, Indiana. Defendants will also spend $9.75 million to fund environmental mitigation projects that will further reduce emissions and benefit communities adversely affected by pollution from its plants, and pay a civil penalty of $3.4 million. Defendants recently announced their intention to sell the Kincaid and Brayton Point Power Stations to a subsidiary of Energy Capital Partners, a subsidiary of which, Equipower Resources, also owns and operates several power plants in the Northeast. The proposed consent decree provides a process for any such new owner to be substituted as a party to the consent decree.
