Take Action

Contact the EWEB and LRAPA boards and voice your concerns. They need to hear that you’re concerned about the amount of air pollutants the power plant will emit – especially considering it’s in an area with a heavy amount of industry and manufacturing (West Eugene). Urge them to:

  1. Require Seneca to use Regenerative Selective Catalytic Reduction to reduce NOx emissions and Selective Catalytic Reduction to reduce CO.
  2. Use continuous monitoring for as many pollutants as possible.  Where not possible, use regular and accurate sample monitoring.
  3. LRAPA should include strict language for pollution reporting and explicit language for fines when Seneca exceeds limits.
  4. EWEB should get a guarantee in writing that forests will not be cleared to fuel the power plant.
  5. Work with Seneca and other West Eugene industries to fund an ambient air monitor in West Eugene.
