BILLING CODE 5001–06–P
DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Record of Decision and Floodplain
Statement of Findings for the
FutureGen 2.0 Project
Department of Energy.
Record of Decision.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The United States (U.S.)
Department of Energy (DOE) announces
its decision to provide financial
assistance to the FutureGen Industrial
Alliance (the Alliance) for its FutureGen
2.0 Project. DOE prepared an
environmental impact statement (EIS)
(DOE/EIS–0460) to evaluate the
potential environmental impacts
associated with DOE’s proposed action
of providing approximately $1 billion of
financial assistance for the project (the
majority of which was appropriated
under the American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act (ARRA)) through
cooperative agreements with the
Alliance. The EIS evaluated the
potential impacts associated with
construction and operation of the
proposed FutureGen 2.0 Project, which
is a public-private partnership formed
for the purpose of developing the
world’s first commercial-scale, oxycombustion electric generation project
integrated with carbon capture and
geologic storage. The Alliance,
cooperating with Ameren Energy
Resources (Ameren), would upgrade one
unit in a power plant currently owned
by Ameren near Meredosia, Illinois. The
repowered unit would include oxycombustion and carbon capture
technologies designed to capture at least
90 percent of its carbon dioxide (CO2)
emissions during steady-state operation
and reduce other emissions to near zero.
The captured CO2 would be transported
through an approximately 30-mile
pipeline to wells where it would be
injected approximately 4,000 feet below
ground into a geologic saline formation
for permanent storage. The project
would be designed to capture, transport,
and inject approximately 1.2 million
tons (1.1 million metric tons) of CO2
annually, and up to a total of 24 million
tons (22 million metric tons) over

approximately 20 years. The Alliance
would also construct and operate
visitor, research, and training facilities
related to carbon capture and storage in
the vicinity of Jacksonville, Illinois. The
DOE-funded demonstration period
would last for 56 months from the start
of operations (approximately 2017)
through 2022.
ADDRESSES: The EIS and this record of
decision (ROD) are available on DOE’s
National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA) Web site at https://energy.gov/
nepa/nepa-documents and on the DOE
National Energy Technology Laboratory
(NETL) Web site at https://

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DOE
prepared this ROD and Floodplain
Statement of Findings pursuant to the
National Environmental Policy Act of
1969 (42 United States Code [U.S.C.]
4321, et seq.), and in compliance with
the Council on Environmental Quality
(CEQ) implementing regulations for
NEPA (40 Code of Federal Regulations
[CFR] parts 1500 through 1508), DOE’s
implementing procedures for NEPA (10
CFR Part 1021), and DOE’s Compliance
with Floodplain and Wetland
Environmental Review (10 CFR part
1022). The decisions announced in this
ROD are based on DOE’s final EIS for
the FutureGen 2.0 Project (DOE/EIS–
0460, October 2013) and other program
considerations.
Purpose and Need for Agency Action
DOE considers the advancement of
carbon capture and storage technology
critically important to addressing CO2
emissions and global climate change
concerns associated with the use of
fossil fuels. The purpose of DOE’s
proposed action is to demonstrate the
