Hollingsworth, National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Document Manager, U.S. Department of Energy, National Energy Technology Laboratory, 3610 Collins Ferry Road, P. O. Box 880, Morgantown, WV 26507-0880. Telephone: (304) 285-4992. Fax: (304) 285-4403. E-mail: [email protected]. For general information on DOE’s NEPA process, contact Ms. Carol M. Borgstrom, Director, Office of NEPA Policy and Assistance (EH-42), U.S. Department of Energy, 1000 Independence Avenue, SW, Washington, DC 20585.

ABSTRACT This EIS assesses environmental issues associated with constructing and demonstrating a project that would be cost-shared by DOE and JEA (formerly the Jacksonville Electric Authority) under the Clean Coal Technology Program. The project would demonstrate circulating fluidized bed (CFB) combustion technology at JEA’s existing Northside Generating Station in Jacksonville, Florida, about 9 miles northeast of the downtown area of Jacksonville. The new CFB combustor would use coal and petroleum coke to generate nearly 300 MW of electricity by repowering the existing Unit 2 steam turbine, a 297.5-MW unit that has been out of service since 1983.

  • Developing Leaders to Strengthen Our Community 2015-2016 YEARBOOK in MEMORY
    Developing Leaders to Strengthen Our Community 2015-2016 YEARBOOK IN MEMORY Eleanor Johnson Ashby October 17, 1931 – July 25, 2015 Executive Director, Leadership Jacksonville 1978-1998 What is once well done is done forever. Henry David Thoreau Letter from the Executive Director Dear Leadership Jacksonville alumni and friends, For 40 years Leadership Jacksonville has educated, connected and inspired diverse leaders from across Northeast Florida. Wow! Two thousand adults have participated in our core adult program during this period and are building and strengthening their communities. The 2015-16 Yearbook cover shows a stunning array of area trees. Trees were intentionally chosen this year for their obvious representation of the reach of our alumni. Participants in our adult, youth, college and new leader programs form the roots of our community – they are the base upon which much good happens but their work isn’t always seen. The product of your efforts branches and spreads across our region and many of the great things that happen in Northeast Florida are the result of the vision, hard work and collaboration of our alumni. I am often reminded of a favorite quote, “The true meaning of life is to plant trees, under whose shade you do not expect to sit.” Nelson Henderson As a result of 40 years of hard work by alumni, staff and community volunteers and generous financial support, Leadership Jacksonville continues to plant trees. Our community is a better place because of your leadership, vision and action. Thank you. Jill Langford Dame Meg Folds Nicole Bryan Yvonne Moore Eleanor Ashby Executive Youth Programs Adult Program Administrative Director Director Director Coordinator Assistant Emeritus Table of Contents Mission Statement Honors 3 Leadership Jacksonville educates, connects and inspires Legacy Series 3 diverse leaders to build and strengthen their communities.
