Title: Emerging Environmental Regulations and Their Impact on the Electric Utility Industry, Presented by Steven Whitworth, Ameren Services, at Electric Utility Chemistry Workshop, June 7-9, 2011, Champaign, Illinois

Emerging Environmental Regulations and Their Impacts on the Electric Utility Industry Steven C. Whitworth, Ameren Services There are numerous environmental regulations in place that impact the electric utility industry. In the last year, the USEPA has announced an almost unprecedented number of new initiatives as well as revisions to existing regulations. This presentation will provide an update on several regulations that will impact the electric utility industry including the Clean Water Act 316(b) provisions for cooling water intake structures, a proposal to revise the steam electric effluent guideline limitations, the proposed coal combustion residual (CCR) rule, the proposed Clean Air Transport rule and Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) standards for hazardous air pollutants for electric generating units and other power plant equipment including industrial boilers and reciprocating internal combustion engines. The presentation will provide information on potential impacts of the regulations on power plants and a discussion of potential compliance options with a focus on a power plant perspective.
