ELECTRIC DRIVE VEHICLE BATTERY AND COMPONENT MANUFACTURING INITIATIVE APPLICATION, HOLLAND, MICHIGAN U.S. Department of Energy National Energy Technology Laboratory March 2010 COVER SHEET RESPONSIBLE AGENCY: U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) TITLE: Final Environmental Assessment for Compact Power, Inc. Electric Drive Vehicle Battery and Component Manufacturing Initiative Application, Holland, Michigan CONTACT: For additional copies or more information concerning this environmental assessment (EA), please contact: Mr. Mark W. Lusk U.S. Department of Energy National Energy Technology Laboratory P.O. Box 880 3610 Collins Ferry Road Morgantown, WV 26507-0880 Telephone: (304) 285-4145 Email: [email protected]. ABSTRACT: DOE prepared this EA to evaluate the potential environmental consequences of providing an American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act; Public Law 111- 5, 123 Stat. 115) grant to Compact Power, Inc. to construct and operate a high-volume manufacturing plant to build advanced lithium-ion cells and batteries. The cells and batteries would be for use in automotive applications including but not limited to hybrid electric, plug-in hybrid electric, pure electric vehicles for commercial purposes, and military hybrid vehicles, as well as for aviation, smart grid support, broadband backup power, and energy storage for renewable energy. DOE’s Proposed Action is to provide $151 million in financial assistance in a cost-sharing arrangement with the project proponent, Compact Power, Inc. The total cost of the project is estimated at $303 million. Compact Power, Inc.’s proposed project would expand its domestic capacity to produce advanced lead-acid batteries for use in the transportation industry. Compact’s 850,000-square-foot facility would be built on vacant land located mostly in the City of Holland, Allegan County, Michigan, with a small portion of the proposed site located in the adjacent Fillmore Township. This EA evaluates 14 resource areas and identifies no significant adverse impacts for the proposed project after consideration of the mitigation of impacts to wetlands. Beneficial impacts to the nation’s air quality and transportation could be realized from implementation of the proposed project. In addition, beneficial socioeconomic impacts would occur from increased employment opportunities and spending in the affected local economies. Availability: A Notice of Availability was placed in the Holland Sentinel and Grand Rapids Press on January 8, 9, and 10, 2010. The Draft EA was made available for public review from DOE/EA-1709 iii January 8, 2009 through February 7, 2010 at the Herrick District Library, 300 S. River Avenue, Holland, Michigan. The Draft EA was also available on the National Energy Technology Laboratory web site and was mailed to individuals and agencies listed in Appendix A. This Final EA is available on DOE’s National Energy Technology Laboratory website at http://www.netl.doe.gov/publications/others/nepa/ea.html.

  • Park Township Master Plan - 2011 Park Township Master Plan - 2011 1
    abundant natural beauty rural & agricultural character walkable community alternative transportation culture of collaboration sustainable redevelopment balanced housing quality development Park Township Master Plan - 2011 Park Township Master Plan - 2011 1 Park Township Overview CHAPTER ONE Park Township is located in Ottawa County on the Lake Michigan shore and is within Holland’s metropolitan area. Consequently, it is influenced both economically and culturally by the city. While most of the 21.3 square mile township is north of Lake Macatawa a small portion is located on the south shore. It is physically separated by the lake and the City of Holland from the rest of the township. Because of its attractive location, Park Township has diverse land uses that range along the lakeshore from areas dotted with parks, large estate homes, and historic resort communities to older, more mod- est homes and cabins perched atop high dunes. This setting helps shape the character of Park Township. Among its major parks are Ottawa County’s Tunnel Park, a popular beach with scenic views WELCOME TO PARK TOWNSHIP and dunes and Holland State Park, one of the most visited in the State Park system. It strongly influences the character of the north shore of Lake Macatawa. “Big Red,” the historic lighthouse on the south side of the Lake Macatawa Channel, has long been a symbol of the Township and the entire Holland lakeshore area. The South Shore is characterized by seasonal cottages, an historic resort enclave, lakefront estate homes, a large marina and well-kept, traditional residential neighborhoods. The area is strongly influenced by its location adjacent to neighborhoods in northwest Holland.

  • Long-Term Fish Monitoring of Lake Macatawa: Results from Year 1
    Long-Term Fish Monitoring of Lake Macatawa: Results from Year 1 Carl R. Ruetz III1 and Andrya Whitten Annis Water Resources Institute Grand Valley State University 740 W. Shoreline Drive, Muskegon, Michigan 49441 3 December 2014 An Annual Report to the Outdoor Discovery Center Holland, Michigan 49423 1 Corresponding author; Office: 616-331-3946; E-mail: [email protected] 1 Introduction This study was initiated to provide critical information on littoral fish populations that will be used to evaluate the performance of watershed restoration activities that are part of Project Clarity. Although we do not expect the benefits of the restoration activities in the watershed to be expressed in Lake Macatawa immediately, establishing baseline conditions in Lake Macatawa will be critical for evaluating ecological change over time. In autumn 2014, we initiated a long-term monitoring effort of the littoral fish assemblage of Lake Macatawa. Our fish sampling plan for Lake Macatawa is similar to our ongoing, long-term (since 2003) monitoring effort in Muskegon Lake (Bhagat and Ruetz 2011). By using the same monitoring protocols in each water body, Muskegon Lake can serve as a “control” to evaluate temporal changes in Lake Macatawa in an effort to assess how the lake is responding to watershed restoration activities. Our primary objective for this first year of sampling was to characterize the pre-restoration (baseline) littoral fish assemblage. We made preliminary comparisons with our ongoing work in Muskegon Lake (see Ruetz et al. 2007; Bhagat and Ruetz 2011) as well as with six Lake Michigan drowned river mouths for which we have data (see Janetski and Ruetz 2014).
