Had a long call with Matt Wald, who, as you know, is far more fluent in power plant technology than I am. He was making the case that besides the closed mountaineer plant in WV, CCS has never really been demonstrated. While there are some projects being built, they are not yet operational, and therefore not “demonstrated.”

I gave him my best arguments, but I did not make a sale.

Since he missed the meeting(s) with Gina over past day or two, it might be worth your while to have Gina or some other senior person call him ASAP to walk him through how the standard meets the adequately demonstrated test. Also, he will be talking to AEP in ~ 45 minutes.

Greetings,

Recently, OMB posted the Draft 2013 Report Congress on the Costs and Benefits of Federal Regulation in the Federal Register: https://www.federalregister.gov/articles/2013/05/21/2013‐11984/draft‐2013‐report‐to‐ congress‐on‐the‐benefits‐and‐costs‐of‐federal‐regulations‐and‐unfunded‐mandates

Thank you

Good afternoon,

Every year, as required by Congress, OMB issues a report on the costs and benefits of federal regulation. A few weeks ago, OMB posted its draft 2013 Report on its website for comment <>. As the final document is sometimes cited as the Administration's official position on EPA rules, it is very important that it be as consistent as possible with EPA's analysis and views.

My staff will coordinate Agency comments through the Economics Forum Steering Committee and the Regulatory Steering Committee. We'd appreciate having comments on the draft report by June 14. I'll share EPA's combined draft comments with you before sending them to OMB.

Please have your staff submit one set of comments, approved by you, to Jennifer Bowen in NCEE with a cc: to Nicole Owens in ORPM. Please feel free to contact me or have your staff contact Al McGartland (566‐2244) or Jennifer Bowen (566‐2281) for further information.

Thanks very much ‐ Michael

How come CCS is OK for coal but not gas? I haven't gotten through that part of the preamble. D.C. Cir.'s biomass ruling could be a problem for that.

Thanks. Attached is a version with a redline showing edits to what was in that draft. Some of the edits in the intro paragraph were circulated by Howard previously (but don’t seem to have made it in) and then I made some edits to later paragraphs to try and bee a littl more consistent with what we said and did in the preamble/reg text.

Let me know if you’d like to discuss further.

Attached is my shot at addressing many of Howard’s comments. I’ve added in a couple of examples of units directly impacted by the rescission notice, don’t know if that is useful? There are still a couple of holes.

HJH1 – Nick or Christian, can you make this consistent with whatever we are saying in the proposal HJH3 – Juan, can you look at this Title V question.

Mary, Eric or Marguerite – can you look at general FR formatting as well as overall readability

Howard – obviously make sure I didn’t screw anything up with my edits. http://www.mississippipower.com/kemper/news sep12‐2013.asp

Janet and Joe – For your review are a single set of talking points for the “pre‐announcement” calls to individual stakeholders. We think this could serve as a script for whomever needs to make these calls. In addition, we have prepared 4 Q&A documents. These have a lot of overlap, but serve to group together the toughest Qs that might be raised by each group ‐‐ states, industry, environmental groups and labor unions. They are also ordered differently depending on the stakeholder they are for.

Please review and let us know if you have questions.

Joe,

Here is a first crack at the language related to taking comment on a fuel neutral approach that Peter mentioned to you. Ideally we will be able to tighten it up. Further, I think we need to be much clearer that we think coal can indeed meet the standard. We’ll work on that.

Thanks for sharing, Tom. Knowing it went home with the Administrator is about the same as saying it wont be the same speech tomorrow. NEvertheless, I marked a few edits/comments on the attached version for your consideration. Also, I thought the first half of the speech was a bit rambly in its organization‐‐I had a hard time following the thread and understanding why it made certain points where it did.

Hi all,

I've updated the talking points to add a reference to ccs and to better connect them with the administrator's draft speech. I also caught a few embarrassing typos that went unnoticed in the previous draft.

My apologies for the multiple drafts.

Attached is my shot at addressing many of Howard’s comments. I’ve added in a couple of examples of units directly impacted by the rescission notice, don’t know if that is useful? There are still a couple of holes.

HJH1 – Nick or Christian, can you make this consistent with whatever we are saying in the proposal HJH3 – Juan, can you look at this Title V question.

Mary, Eric or Marguerite – can you look at general FR formatting as well as overall readability

Howard – obviously make sure I didn’t screw anything up with my edits.

Janet,

We wanted to provide you with a little more background on our discussions with OMB.

Today we focused on two issues and agreed that our policy goals were the same in both. We are working on edits that will address both these issues.

1 (b) (5)

We will be sensitive to these concerns as we revise the package.

On Wednesday OMB indicated that they would like to discuss transitional sources and our cost benefit analysis. We will update you further after that discussion.

Hi all—

Attached are updated talking points and a press release to reflect the new approach. I am also attaching an updated call list. We are currently working to update the fact sheet and Q&As and they will be ready for review Monday evening. I’ll be working on the talking points for our press call and the stakeholder calls this weekend and hope to have a copy to you all on Monday.

We have not yet received either the op‐ed or the Administrator’s speech, but as soon as we get them we’ll pass those along.

Thanks and hope everyone has a great weekend!

Janet‐ Sorry to be a little slow in responding, but we did look at a copy of the API report referred to in some press blurbs the other day. Paul and his staff prepared the summary which I am pasting below (I am not recommending that you read the report, but have attached it if you are interested). Thanks Sarah

API released a new report “Key Investments in Greenhouse Gas Mitigation Technologies from 2000 Through 2012 by Energy Firms, Other Industry and the Federal Government” produced by T2 and Associates on Wednesday, September 10th. (NOTE: Tom Tanton [President of T2] is affiliated with or formerly worked for EPRI, CEC, IER, Heartland, ALEC.) The report estimates total North American (NA) investments in GHG mitigation technologies, as well as by sector/technology category and also includes analysis of total US emissions reductions based on EIA projections and more specifically emissions reductions from the O&G industry compiled from public company reports. This report is an update to the October 2011 study that reviewed investments and emissions reductions from 2000‐2010.

Key report findings:  NA investments in GHG mitigation technology (2000‐2012) totaled $336.3 billion, of which $165.4 billion from US O&G industry, $91.2 billion from all other US private industry and $79.7 billion from Federal government. (This total drops to $251.9 billion when not including investments in shale gas by the O&G industry (representing $84.4 billion). o Investment estimates were compiled from public sources including 650 annual reports, federal budget documents, etc. o Investments in 16 mitigation technologies were categorized into four categories (fuel substitution, nonhydrocarbon, end‐use, and enabling). . 7 technologies combined to represent +80% of all investments (shale gas, advanced technology vehicles, efficiency, wind, ethanol, fugitive gas reductions, and nuclear). o Compared to the previous report, in 2011 and 2012 NA investments grew over $108 billion (with shale gas responsible for almost half of the investment growth) o Other than the O&G industry, the automotive, agricultural, utility, and renewable fuel industries made significant investments in GHG mitigation technology. o Total Federal government investments do not include “so‐called green jobs trainings programs,” federal tax credits (e.g., renewable PTC), or international assistance.

 While investments have increased, US energy‐related CO2 emissions have declined in four of the last six years. o Recent emissions reductions resulted from fuel switching/low NG price, mild weather, and EPA regulations. o According to self‐reported industry sources, O&G annual emission reductions totaled 53.1 MMTCO2e in 2011 and 53.6 MMTCO2e in 2012. . These values are likely underestimated as the report states that EPA’s Natural Gas STAR program estimates methane reductions that are much higher than calculated under this analysis and that fuel substitution estimates do not include fuel switching from coal to gas, only gas to gas. o The reports notes the projected increases in global energy demand underscore the “importance of continued economically viable investments leading to more efficient, and lower‐GHG emitting technologies, as well as the development of efficient technology transfer programs to developing countries.”  According to EIA data and due to energy efficiency improvements and a shift to less carbon‐intensive fuels, US energy‐related CO2 emissions will remain 5% below 2005 level through 2040.

9/10/13 12:04 PM EDT

The oil and gas industry has invested more in reducing greenhouse gas emissions than the federal government since 2000, and nearly as much as all other sectors combined, according to a new study released Tuesday by API.

The report, said API President and CEO Jack Gerard, found that the federal government invested $80 billion toward reducing greenhouse gas emissions between 2000 and 2012, and all other industries combined invested $91 billion. The oil and gas industry, Gerard said, invested $81 billion in technology to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, including mechanisms to reduce fugitive emissions and flaring.

“Our CO2 emissions today are near 20-year lows,” said API President and CEO Jack Gerard, adding that between 2011 and 2012, the industry reduced emissions by 53.6 million metric tons, or the equivalent of taking 10.8 million cars off the road.

“In many ways, we are leaders as a single industry sector,” Gerard said. “We are, by and large, a significant contributor to finding those breakthrough technologies … we’re working to find new techonologies and further reduce the greenhouse gas emission footprint int eh U.S. and around the world.”

112 According to the EPA, the oil and gas industry contributed more than half of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions in 2011.

That number comes from Exhibit ES‐2 (page 5) of the DOE NETL report:

“Cost and Performance Baseline for Fossil Energy Plants Volume 1: Bituminous Coal and Natural Gas to Electricity” Revision 2, November 2010 DOE/NETL‐2010/1397 http://www.netl.doe.gov/energy‐analyses/pubs/BitBase FinRep Rev2.pdf

It represents the CO2 emission for a new 550 MWe (net) Supercritical PC burning bituminous coal.

The value is net output 1,768 lb CO2/MWh‐net The value in gross output is 1,675 lb CO2/MWh‐gross *note that our proposed standard is gross output.

Emission rates for a similar unit burning lignite or subbituminous coal would be a bit higher.

134

In the same report, they estimate that a new 550 MWe(net) NGCC unit would emit

804 lb/MWh‐net 790 lb/MWh‐gross

There is a press question asking for this type of info now too. From NYT. So could we use this for that, too? And what’s the number for the “best” natural gas unit?

Here’s the Q from NYT

Todays WashPost states, without sourcing, that the average coal‐fired power plant emits 1,768 lbs. of CO2 per megawatt (do they mean megawatt‐hour?) and that the average for natural gas plants is 800 to 850 pounds.

Might you have any idea where those figures come from, and whether they're accurate? Whats the best rate so far achieved by a coal‐fired plant, presumably one of the ultrasupercritical ones? Ditto natural gas plants?

In light of this, I assume you could, possibly, join us for the meeting on the 19th to share your thoughts on the rule? Seems like this cat clawed it way out of the bag pretty early.

Let me know if that is possible. If not, I still need to know if you can do a meeting/call with the group on the afternoon of Sept. 20.

Once we confirm when the meeting is taking place, I will pass that info along, but given that we already have the below set up as a template, let's aim to have something ready by COB Monday just in case.

Btw, Bob's brief commentary on the last meeting might offer a bit of a guide of the update points we should hit.

ECOS is bugging us for your bio. Did you have a chance to take a look yet? Here it is again with a few edits from me ‐‐ Bio Joe Goffman has been Senior Counsel to the Assistant Administrator for Air and Radiation at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency since October, 2009. He is a leading expert on clean air and climate legislation and regulation. As Senate EPW Committee staff, he worked on air and climate issues and [delete: the recent cap-and-trade] legislation. In a previous position with the committee [delete: 20 years ago], he played a key role in developing the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990. He has also held senior policy positions at Environmental Defense Fund and at the U.S. EPA in the acid rain program.

1. Nancy‐ Please let me know if the bios below (particularly Joe’s) are OK. 2. Tom had hoped that he could squeeze me in as staff to hear Janet’s portion of the Air Committee session but, if Betsy does attend, that will not be possible as Janet is only allowed to bring one person with her. So, Betsy, if for some reason you are not able to attend, please let me know.

From: Tom Tyler [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, September 09, 2013 4:33 PM To: Fitzmaurice, Carey Subject: Fwd: ECOS Annual Meeting - Speakers/Attendees - Air Committee - PLEASE CONFIRM EPA INFO

Hi, Carey,

Please let me know if any of the information below is incorrect. The bios are from EPA (for Janet) and from another group at which Joe Goffman spoke.

ECOS is cracking down on attendees so that each speaker can only bring one without having to register them for $125. Janet and Joe will both be speakers for the Tue 9/17 7am event, so each can bring one person. Janet is the only speaker for the 8am committee meeting, so she can bring one person. If you all would like to register an additional person to attend that session please let me know or contact Lia Parisien directly.

Please let me know if there are corrections or if you have any questions.

Thanks!

Best, Tom

Later this week the WH is holding the next in its series of biweekly Deputies meetings updating progress on the President's Climate Action Plan, with the most recent one having been held during the last week in August. For that most recent meeting we prepared what is pasted into the email from Joel below. Can we please prepare an updated version for Bob P's use this week? Once we confirm when the meeting is taking place, I will pass that info along, but given that we already have the below set up as a template, let's aim to have something ready by COB Monday just in case.

Btw, Bob's brief commentary on the last meeting might offer a bit of a guide of the update points we should hit.

Thanks.

PS Since it looks like they mean it when they say "bi‐weekly", let's set up a schedule for getting these done and to Nancy and me by COB every other Monday, starting tomorrow. Thanks, again.

Sounds like you guys are rocking it Janet. The HFC stuff is great news. Looking forward to hearing about the methane strategy when we get a chance to talk.

Just thinking, given all the press around the new car label, is it worth talking about a rollout strategy to get some attention to the used car FE/GHG label? The consumer groups might help ‐ they did with the new label. Can you have folks fill Tom in if they haven't already?

Also, the asthma PSA campaign might be of interest to some of our constituency groups, Can you have someone fill Brian Bond in? ______From: McCabe, Janet Sent: Saturday, September 07, 2013 12:27 PM To: Adm13McCarthy, Gina; Atkinson, Emily; Deputy Administrator; Feldt, Lisa; Ganesan, Arvin; Ketcham‐Colwill, Nancy; Beauvais, Joel; Goffman, Joseph; Shaw, Betsy Subject: OAR Hot list, week of September 9

Dear All. First of all, Melanie and Jonathan, thanks for taking the time to meet with us last week – and, Chris, for your patience in my getting back to you on this after our chat after the methane meeting on Wednesday.

To address the issues related to ongoing DOE‐led research on CCS, we added language to the latest draft of the NSPS preamble (which can be found around page 212 of the RLSO draft we circulated back through OIRA):

(b) (5) d

s

Your staff should also have a copy from OIRA. In addition, we are considering suggestions you made regarding (b) (5)

– and we plan to include additional edits encompassing this in the next iteration of the preamble (after the next scheduled call with OMB on Tuesday the 10th).

Let’s keep working on this

Thanks.

Thanks for getting the hot list started, Nancy. You may have already canvassed the crew, but just in case, I'm including them. the first four are fine.

Joe, Betsy, Joel‐‐anything else you can think of?

We still had two areas to cover ‐‐ package movement and hot issues list topics. Kristien sent you her one‐pager on what packages to expect when over the next few weeks. Let us know if it would helpful to talk through it. And here are suggested topics of the hot list so far. A question mark means I’m really not sure whether/what would be useful to report at this time. I’d be happy to talk about these this afternoon but really want to leave you be to attend to everything there. It’s amazing how much you’re shouldering right now – and you were already shouldering an amazing amount! Take care of you, too.

Hi Joe,

Here are some draft slides for your NARUC talk. Unfortunately, we need to provide the final slides to Jody tomorrow morning. As a reminder the NARUC webinars are split into two sessions. The first session is this Friday and the second session is in the beginning of October. Basically the first webinar will provide a foundational overview of section 111(d) and the second webinar (in October will examine alternative approaches to regulating greenhouse gas, with a discussion of the issues EPA may need to address to consider under Section 111(d).

With that said, the approach for the first session was to consolidate and deliver the first half of the webinar presentation, which is what we’ve done in the attached. OAQPS and OAP are also working to provide talking points (in Q&A format) for each of the tick points on the Task forces abstract (attached here too). We should have those to you on Thursday at the latest.

Please let me know if you have comments on the power point by tomorrow noon and/or if you need additional information. A hard copy of both are on your chair.

Thanks so much!

Hi Joe,

Thank you so much for standing in for Janet. Since I won’t see you tonight, I thought I’d pass along the talking points I put together for Janet and a one pager with background on the event.

There’s no need to use the attached talking points since this is a more informal audience, but thought I’d share them in case they were useful. I also mentioned in the cover sheet that I had asked Janet to talk about the role she plays or a role she played in the past in the policy development process. There is no requirement to do this, but if you had an example you wanted to share by all means share it. If not, no worries they won’t be expecting it.

You’ll need to be at the event for the first 30 mins (from 1:30 to 2). Ellen will fill in for the rest of the time to talk about the MATS development and implementation process.

Let’s touch base sometime in the morning.

Joe,

Not sure if you’re able to check e‐mail from your jury duty, but I wanted to update you on the proposal. As you know, we delivered an updated version to OMB on Friday. We are scheduled to follow up with them next Tuesday (Nathan is out all this week).

We have scheduled an update meeting with Janet for Thursday to discuss key issues including:

1. (b) (5)

As I suspect you know, Thursday is Rosh Hashanah, so we will at a minimum be losing Howard and Elliot for the meeting. Our understanding is that Janet’s schedule is quite full and that there are no available meeting times on Wednesday or Friday. Since the only other option was to move the meeting to next week and that presents its own set of challenges, we have kept the Thursday meeting. We wanted to make sure you were aware of the conflict.

I thought I share the state‐specific benefits numbers the 3rd floor had requested as information to share with the RAs and as potential input to speeches by senior EPA officials given in particular states. John Millet was also involved in this exercise and reviewed the one pager before it went downstairs.

The attached one‐pager explains that these numbers are (a) central estimates for 2010, (b) the incremental effect of post‐90 amendment programs established as of late 2005, and (c) updates of the original 812 study numbers reflecting the latest BenMAP model, updated PM health studies, and 2010 value dollars.

Major kudos to Charlie Fulcher of OAQPS, who stepped in brilliantly and enthusiastically to run the 812 air quality scenarios through BenMAP for us when contractor support wasn't available.

Please let me know if you have any questions or want to discuss these numbers.

Happy holiday weekend... Jim

Janet and Joe, Michael Bradley is coming in Wednesday morning with some CEG member CEOs to talk to Gina about a new (to us and to Michael) issue concerning the 316(b) rule. In the version that went to OMB (which they seem to have or at least know a lot about) permitting agencies are allowed to waive the requirement that the applicant submit a benefits evaluation. Further, although the permitting agency is required to review any information that an applicant submits, in this rule an exception is explicitly made for a benefits evaluation if the permitting agency has waived the requirement. The applicant is required to submit detailed cost studies. (b) (5) The CEG companies want the permitting agency to be required to review a benefits evaluation if the company submits one.

Michael has talked to Michael Goo about this. He hasn’t talked to OW. I don’t know if Michael Goo has talked to Gina. On Wednesday afternoon they are going to OMB to talk about this as well.

I can send the above to Gina or maybe you would rather send it or tell her in person. Either way is fine with me. Ellen

60 GW COAL TO SHUT DOWN IN 5 YEARS THANKS TO REGS - REPORT: An ICF International report says that 60 gigawatts of coal-fired power will be shut down in five years because it won't be cost- effective to comply with greenhouse gas regulations and the low price of natural gas. EPA's New Source Performance Standards for greenhouse gases "effectively requires" carbon capture and storage technologies for new coal plants at some point in their life, the report says. The study was requested by the Eastern Interconnection States Planning Council and the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners and was publicly released this week. Stimulus money from the Energy Department funded the study. http://bit.ly/19yuRba

Thanks, Ellen – this is helpful. I paged through the report as well, and – although they seem to do some analysis of retrofit costs and economic viability of plants, I couldn’t see any clear explanation of the basis of their 35‐60 number or how this relates to the 50 or so that have already announced retirement, let alone the questions you raise about disentangling impacts of regs versus gas prices etc.

From: Kurlansky, Ellen Sent: Thursday, August 22, 2013 3:51 PM To: Beauvais, Joel Cc: Harvey, Reid; Stenhouse, Jeb; Culligan, Kevin; Goffman, Joseph Subject: RE: ICF report on coal plant retirements

Joel, I am sure you will get a fuller response from CAMD, but here is quick read. I think the headline comes from this paragraph in the report:

New environmental regulations and low gas prices are two principal drivers of the current challenging environment for existing coal plants. Somewhere between 35 and 60 GW of coal capacity is expected to be shut down within the next 3 to 5 years because installing control equipment to become compliant will not be cost-effective, particularly in the face of low gas prices and potential future GHG restrictions. Most of the plants threatened with closure will be smaller and have low capacity factors, although local capacity constraints could complicate retirement plans, potentially requiring new capacity and/or transmission investments to maintain reliability. Therefore, it is critical to understand the regulatory and market drivers that will bring about these shutdowns.

So far not so bad, but then they go on to say: “To date, approximately 40 GW of coal‐fired capacity retirements have been announced mostly due to the MATS rule.” As far as I can tell, they don’t have analysis that tells them that, it is more a matter of speaking sloppily.

Regarding new coal plants, the report says that their development is uncertain because of several factors including the large capital investment and long lead time, new environmental regs especially an NSPS for GHGs that requires CCS at some point, cost and regulatory uncertainly (i.e. will the PUC approve the project in the face of everything else), low gas prices, citizen opposition.

They conclude with:

If energy prices remain low, as is currently the case with low gas prices, low load growth, increasing demand resources, and capacity prices remain depressed due to the excess supply of capacity and other factors, the additional costs of retrofits needed to comply with more stringent environmental regulations might force a greater fraction of the existing coal-fired fleet out of the market through retirement or conversion to natural gas. High reserve margins and low load growth remains a critical challenge for new entrants in general, and even more so for coal plants whose costs are much higher than CONE. Furthermore, there are no mechanisms in the power markets to internalize the value of fuel diversity, fuel security, or other public policy considerations. Hence, the new thermal generating units that have cleared in recent capacity auctions have overwhelmingly been natural gas-fired plants. Any requirements to incorporate CCS technology driven by climate change regulation, with its additional costs and technology risks, will further disadvantage new coal plants relative to gas.

I look forward to what CAMD says.

Tom R called to scope out the possibility of a roll‐out plan for the new source 111b proposal that would have Gina announcing the proposed rule the 19th with follow‐on events the 20th. He wanted to get some sense of whether the rule could be ready for release the 19th. I told him one issue would be whether other folks in the Administration would be willing to meet that date. There is also the more fundamental issue of whether we can get the work done in time. He’d appreciate a reality check soon. If you don’t have an instant reaction (so you don’t have to spend any more of your vacation time reacting), I vote for letting Tom know he’ll hear from us Monday or Tuesday.

Just a heads‐up that a lawyer in town, Peter Wyckoff (former OGC; claims to have hired Patricia), is advancing a theory, outlined in the attached, that the architecture of the Endangerment Finding left out biogenic CO2 emissions and that, as a result, biogenic CO2 emissions cannot be treated as "regulated pollutants" for PSD purposes. He represents a consortium of ag associations, plus NACWA, and reported that he is seeking to persuade NAFO and AF and PA, and their attorneys, to join forces with him in petitioning the agency for a rulemaking and/or in reactivating AF and PA's (still pending, but in abeyance?) DC Circuit petition(?) challenging the LDV rule as a means of vindicating that interpretation.

No action indicated yet, but in the event that Roger Martella et al bite on this to the extent of coming back to us in some way, we may have to evaluate and respond. (b) (5)

Thank you.

Attached is the unanimous decision from the 3rd Circuit upholding the dismissal from federal district court in W.D. PA. We lost on all counts. Third Circuit provided a much more reasoned decision than 7th Cir in Midwest Gen ; however, it does not help us. Here is my quick summary:

The panel found 1) PSD is not continuing violation. Nor is BACT. 2) current owners can’t be liable for penalty or injunctive relief as violations are > 5 yrs old. 3) past owners can’t be penalized for injunctive relief as there is no relief possible to grant as they no longer own plant. (b) (5)

4) no SIP liability under PA SIP b/c court found PA mirrored federal provisions and didn’t find PA SIP language to require “operation” of BACT. 5) no title V liability as Title V appeals should be taken when permits are issued and not within enforcement context. 6) NJ’s and NY’s state law claims were dismissed b/c fed claims (on which the state’s were based) are dismissed.

OECA and DOJ are trying to muster a call this morning to discuss strategy for appealing this as related to the Midwest Generation appeal (in case DOJ appellate prefers appealing one over another).
