3. Affected Environment 3.1 Introduction 3.2 Regional
3. AFFECTED ENVIRONMENT 3.1 INTRODUCTION This chapter of the Kemper County IGCC Project EIS presents information describing environmental and other resources that might potentially be affected by the proposed action or analyzed alternatives; it serves as a baseline from which the proposed project’s impacts are evaluated. This chapter describes the existing or baseline conditions of resources relative to the three major components of the proposed project: (1) the power plant, which is the component of the project that would be supported by the proposed action (funding and loan guarantee), and several offsite connected actions, including (2) the lignite surface mine, and (3) various linear facilities (pipelines and electric power lines). Environmental characteristics of the affected sites and rights-of-way, as well as their immediate surroundings, are described to levels of detail commensurate with importance of the issues or potential impacts. In most sections baseline conditions are described in detail. However, in some other sections, given the nature of some aspects of this project and the limited potential to impact some environmental resources, relatively brief information is provided to describe the existing environmental characteristics or baseline conditions. The information and data provided in this chapter were gathered during field surveys as well as drawn from literature reports, maps, databases, and other publicly available sources. Sources include specific, project- related environmental documents and permit applications that have previously been filed. The information is pre- sented in the following sections, which describe the physical, biological, environmental, socioeconomic, cultural, and aesthetic and other features and conditions of the project areas and their surroundings: • 3.2—Regional Setting and General Area • 3.11—Wetlands. -

Runway Safety Report Safety Runway
FAA Runway Safety Report Safety Runway FAA Runway Safety Report September 2007 September 2007 September Federal Aviation Administration 800 Independence Avenue SW Washington, DC 20591 www.faa.gov OK-07-377 Message from the Administrator The primary mission of the Federal Aviation Administration is safety. It’s our bottom line. With the aviation community, we have developed the safest mode of transportation in the history of the world, and we are now enjoying the safest period in aviation history. Yet, we can never rest on our laurels because safety is the result of constant vigilance and a sharp focus on our bottom line. Managing the safety risks in the National Airspace System requires a systematic approach that integrates safety into daily operations in control towers, airports and aircraft. Using this approach, we have reduced runway incursions to historically low rates over the past few years, primarily by increasing awareness and training and deploying new technologies that provide critical information directly to flight crews and air traffic controllers. Other new initiatives and technologies, as outlined in the 2007 Runway Safety Report, will provide a means to an even safer tomorrow. With our partners, FAA will continue working to eliminate the threat of runway incursions, focusing our resources and energies where we have the best chance of achieving success. To the many dedicated professionals in the FAA and the aviation community who have worked so tirelessly to address this safety challenge, I want to extend our deepest gratitude and appreciation for the outstanding work you have done to address this ever-changing and ever-present safety threat. -

FAA Runway Safety Report FY 2000
FAA Runway Safety Report Runway Incursion Trends and Initiatives at Towered Airports in the United States, FY 2000 – FY 2003 August 2004 Preface THE 2004 RUNWAY SAFETY REPORT1 presents an assessment of runway safety in the United States for fiscal years FY 2000 through FY 2003. The report also highlights runway safety initiatives intended to reduce the severity, number, and rate of runway incursions. Both current progress and historical data regarding the reduction of runway incursions can be found on the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) web site (http://www.faa.gov). Effective February 8, 2004, the FAA implemented an organizational change that created an Air Traffic Organization (ATO) in addition to its Regulatory functions. Safety Services, within the ATO, has assumed the responsibilities of the former Office of Runway Safety. Therefore, this FAA Runway Safety Report, which covers a period prior to the implemen- tation of the ATO, is the last in a series of reports that exclusively presents information on runway safety. Safety performance will be an integral part of future ATO products. 1 A glossary of terms and a list of acronyms used in this report are provided in Appendix A. Federal Aviation Administration 1 Executive Summary REDUCING THE RISKS OF RUNWAY INCURSIONS AND RUNWAY COLLISIONS is a top priority of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Runway safety management is a dynamic process that involves measuring runway incursions as well as understanding the factors that contribute to runway collision risks and taking actions to reduce these risks. Runway incursion severity ratings (Categories A through D) indicate the potential for a collision or the margin of safety associated with an event. -

Design Temperature Limit Reference Guide (2019 Edition)
ENERGY STAR Single-Family New Homes, Version 3 / 3.1 ENERGY STAR Multifamily New Construction, Version 1 / 1.1 / OR-WA 1.2 Design Temperature Limit Reference Guide (2019 Edition) These 2019 Edition limits are permitted to be used with any National HVAC Design Report, and are required to be used for all National HVAC Design Reports generated on or after 10-01-2020 Introduction One requirement of the ENERGY STAR Single-Family New Homes and Multifamily New Construction (MFNC) programs is to use outdoor design temperatures that do not exceed the maximum cooling season temperature and minimum heating season temperature listed in this reference guide for the state and county, or territory, in which the home is to be certified. Only two exceptions apply: 1. Jurisdiction-Specified Temperatures: If the outdoor design temperatures to be used in load calculations are specified by the jurisdiction where the home will be certified, then these specified temperatures shall be used. 2. Temperature Exception Request: In rare cases, the designer may believe that an exception to the limits in the reference guide are warranted for a particular state and county, or territory. If so, the designer must complete and submit a Design Temperature Exception Request, including a justification for the exception, to [email protected] for review and approval prior to the home’s certification. To obtain the most accurate load calculations, EPA recommends that designers always use the ACCA Manual J, 8th edition, 1% cooling season design temperature and 99% heating season design temperature for the weather location that is geographically closest to the home to be certified. -
