    Statement of Basis Draft Greenhouse Gas Prevention of Significant Deterioration Preconstruction Permit for the El Paso Electric Company, Montana Power Station Permit Number: PSD-TX-1290-GHG September 2013 This document serves as the statement of basis for the above-referenced draft permit, as required by 40 CFR 124.7. This document sets forth the legal and factual basis for the draft permit conditions and provides references to the statutory or regulatory provisions, including provisions under 40 CFR 52.21, that would apply if the permit is finalized. This document is intended for use by all parties interested in the permit. I. Executive Summary On April 20, 2012, El Paso Electric Company (EPEC) submitted to EPA Region 6 a Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) permit application for Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions from its proposed Montana Power Station. The Montana Power Station is to be a new 400 MW (nominal) electric power plant in El Paso County, Texas including four General Electric (GE) natural gas-fired turbines (Model LMS100) and associated equipment, including cooling towers, a firewater pump engine, ammonia storage tanks and unloading system, circuit breakers and a diesel storage tank. In connection with the same proposed project, EPEC submitted a PSD permit application for non-GHG pollutants to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) on April 20, 2012. The draft permit, if finalized as proposed, would authorize GHG emissions from the four turbines, firewater pump engine, circuit breakers, maintenance, startup and shut down emissions and fugitive leak emissions. The remaining units are not considered to be potential GHG emission sources.

Camacho Public Relations Specialist El Paso Electric Company C: 915.487.4753 [email protected] PRESS RELEASE: June 10, 2020 El Paso Electric Earns 2020 ENERGY STAR® Market Leader Award EL PASO, TX – El Paso Electric (EPE) is proud to announce that it has received the 2020 ENERGY STAR® Market Leader Award for its outstanding efforts to promote and support energy efficient construction and help homebuyers experience the peace of mind, quality, comfort, and value that come with living in an ENERGY STAR certified home or apartment. “The ENERGY STAR program proudly recognizes the efforts of our outstanding partners who have made important contributions to energy-efficient construction and environmental protection. Our 2020 Market Leader Award winners demonstrate a high level of commitment to making ENERGY STAR certified homes and apartments available to American consumers. EPA proudly recognizes El Paso Electric as an ENERGY STAR partner,” said Jonathan Passe, Chief of the ENERGY STAR Residential Branch at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Each year, the ENERGY STAR Residential New Construction program presents Market Leader Awards to outstanding partners who have made important contributions to energy efficient construction and environmental protection by building or verifying a significant number of ENERGY STAR certified homes and apartments, or by sponsoring a local program that supported these activities during the previous year. With a baseline of at least 50 homes needed to meet ENERGY STAR standards, EPE was able to contribute to 400 ENERGY STAR certified homes in 2019 through EPE’s energy efficiency programs. This effort is equivalent to reducing CO2 emissions by 584 metric tons, growing 9,680 tree seedlings for 10 years, avoiding the consumption of 1,360 barrels of oil, or removing 126 vehicles from the roads.
