LONGVIEW POWER EMISSIONS Except for carbon dioxide, these numbers are from the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection Division of Air Quality's final Air Permit / PSD Permit. A copy of Longview Power / GenPower, LLC’s Permit Application is on Longview's web site http://www.genpower.net/longview/environmental.html.
Emissions Stack: approximately 550 feet tall; when placed on the hill, the elevation of the stack top will be approximately 900 feet above the Mon River level (approximately 1,700 feet above mean sea level). * This CO2 emissions number is an estimate based on the calculation below. The air permit application does not require that GenPower / Longview Power estimate carbon dioxide emissions, even though many environmental scientists believe the biggest environmental concern facing the world at present is carbon dioxide and global climate change. CO2 calculation: LONGVIEW IS SHORT SIGHTED! |
