Petition to Object to the Nucor Steel Facility, St. James Parish, Louisiana BEFORE THE ADMINISTRATOR U.S. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY In the Matter of Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality's Proposed Operating Permit and Prevention of Significant Deterioration Permit for Consolidated Environmental Management, Inc./Nucor Steel, Louisiana, St. James Parish, Louisiana LDEQ Agency Interest No. 157847 Activity Nos. PER2008000 1 and PER20080002 Permit Nos. 2560-00281-VO; PSD-LA-740 Proposed to Nucor Steel, Louisiana By the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality on October 15 ,2008 PETITION REQUESTING THAT THE ADMINISTRATOR OBJECT TO THE TITLE V OPERATING AND PREVENTION OF SIGNIFICANT DETERIORATION PERMITS PROPOSED FOR NUCOR STEEL, LOUISIANA Pursuant to Section 505(b) of the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. § 7661 deb )(2) and 40 C.F.R. §70.8( d) , Zen-Noh Grain Corporation ("Zen-Noh") petitions the Administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("Administrator") to object to Title V Air Operating Permit (No. 2560-00281 -VO) ("Operating Permit"). Zen-Noh also petitions the Administrator to reopen or revise Prevention of Significant Deterioration Permit (No. PSD-LA-740) ("PSD Pennit"). And, Zen-Noh petitions the Administrator to direct Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality ("LDEQ") to provide Zen-Noh and the public with all information necessary to the issuance or denial of the Operating Pennit and PSD Permit, provide a meaningful period for public review, and reopen the public comment period. Both the Operating Permit and PSD Permit were proposed on or about October 15, 2008 by LDEQ for issuance to Consolidated Environmental Management, Inc.INucor Steel Louisiana ("Nucor") for a Pig Iron Manufacturing Plant in St. James Parish, Louisiana. The grounds for Zen-Noh's Petition are based on comments filed by Zen-Noh with LDEQ on November 24,2008 during the public comment period, and expansions on those comments, as well as additional comments/objections filed with LDEQ on December 12, 2008 and January 28,2008 ("Public Comments"). EPA Region 6 and United States Department ofthe Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service were unable to conduct a complete analysis of the proposed Operating Permit and PSD Permit, and both recommended to LDEQ that it provide a new public comment period to evaluate new modeling analyses to be provided LDEQ.' These new modeling analyses were not provided to Zen-Noh or the general public. As is more fully discussed in Zen-Noh's Public Comments, the refusal by LDEQ to follow the federal law and federally enforceable , See, letter of December I, 2008 from EPA to LDEQ attached as Exhibit I, and letter of November 20, 2008 from United States Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service to LDEQ attached as Exhibit 2. 2 SIP has deprived Zen-Noh and others of their right under the Clean Air Act to review and comment upon all of the information necessary to the issuance or denial of the Operating Permit and PSD Permit. Zen-Noh incorporates by reference to this petition its Public Comments and attaches them here as Exhibits 3, 4 and 5. Respectfully submitted this 30th day of January, 2009 by: PAUL N .

  • On Lay Practice Within North American Soto Zen James Ishmael Ford 5 February 2018 Blue Cliff Zen Sangha Costa Mesa, California L
    On Lay Practice Within North American Soto Zen James Ishmael Ford 5 February 2018 Blue Cliff Zen Sangha Costa Mesa, California Last week I posted on my Monkey Mind blog an essay I titled Soto Zen Buddhism in North America: Some Random Notes From a Work in Progress. There I wrote, along with a couple of small digressions and additions I add for this talk: Probably the most important thing here (within our North American Zen and particularly our North American Soto Zen) has been the rise in the importance of lay practice. My sense is that the Japanese hierarchy pretty close to completely have missed this as something important. And, even within the convert Soto ordained community, a type of clericalism that is a sense that only clerical practice is important exists that has also blinded many to this reality. That reality is how Zen practice belongs to all of us, whatever our condition in life, whether ordained, or lay. Now, this clerical bias comes to us honestly enough. Zen within East Asia is project for the ordained only. But, while that is an historical fact, it is very much a problem here. Actually a profound problem here. Throughout Asia the disciplines of Zen have largely been the province of the ordained, whether traditional Vinaya monastics or Japanese and Korean non-celibate priests. This has been particularly so with Japanese Soto Zen, where the myth and history of Dharma transmission has been collapsed into the normative ordination model. Here I feel it needful to note this is not normative in any other Zen context.

  • SARE, Vol. 58, Issue 1 | 2021
    SARE, Vol. 58, Issue 1 | 2021 Making Space for Myth: Worldbuilding and Interconnected Narratives in Mythspace Francis Paolo Quina University of the Philippines-Diliman, Quezon City, the Philippines Abstract The comics medium has long proven to be fertile ground for worldbuilding, spawning not only imaginary worlds but multiverses that have become international transmedial franchises. In the Philippines, komiks (as it is called locally) has provided the Filipino popular imagination with worlds populated by superheroes, super spies, supernatural detectives, and creatures from different Philippine mythologies. The komiks series Mythspace, written by Paolo Chikiamco and illustrated by several artist-collaborators, takes the latter concept, and launches it into outer space. Classified by its own writer as a “Filipino space opera” consisting of six loosely interconnected stories, Mythspace presents a storyworld where the creatures of Philippine lower mythologies are based on various alien species that visited the Philippines long ago. The article will examine the use of interconnected narratives as a strategy for worldbuilding in Mythspace. Drawing from both subcreation and comic studies, this article posits that interconnected narratives is a worldbuilding technique particularly well-suited to comics, and that the collaborative nature of the medium allows for a diversity of genres and visual styles that can be used by future komiks creators to develop more expansive storyworlds. Keywords: comics studies, subcreation studies, storyworlds, Mythspace, the Philippines The comics medium has long proven to be fertile ground for worldbuilding. It has spawned not only storyworlds in the pages of comic books and graphic novels but given birth to multiverses of storytelling across several media.

  • Brief on Exceptions of Nucor Steel Auburn, Inc
    STATE OF NEW YORK PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION CASE 03-E-0188 - Proceeding on Motion of the Commission Regarding a Retail Renewable Portfolio Standard. BRIEF ON EXCEPTIONS OF NUCOR STEEL AUBURN, INC. Overview The Recommended Decision (“RD”) issued on June 3, 2004, culminates a fifteen month effort to assess the practical ramifications of a Commission policy to spur development of renewable resources to serve New York’s growing electric load. As described in the Introduction and Background section to the RD, mounting state concerns regarding the environmental costs of fossil-fired generation (particularly air emissions) and growing dependence on natural-gas fired generators are the prime motivators for more aggressive pursuit of “clean” energy resources. This interest in renewable, low-emitting or non-emitting resources is inextricably linked to New York’s policies to promote economic development. As Chairman Flynn remarked in his address to the Center for Business Intelligence forum on New York Power Supply in New York City on June 11, 2004: From Clean-Fueled vehicle programs designed to encourage development of cleaner transportation technologies and alternative fuels, to Executive Order lll’s call for more efficient and cleaner use among state-owned facilities, to tax credits that encourage construction of “green” buildings, Governor Pataki has developed a comprehensive energy agenda that balances the need for more energy resources with the need to protect our environment and encourage economic development. The Governor has consistently emphasized the importance of energy’s role in linking environmental protection with economic development.1 Nucor Steel Auburn, Inc. (“Nucor”) has been an active participant in this docket.
