Project Description: a. Provide the brief project summary to be published in the EQB Monitor, (approximately 50 words). The University of Minnesota intends to construct a new combined heat and power (CHP) facility at the existing Main Plant, located on the west side of the Minneapolis campus. The Main CHP Project will consist of a 22.8 megawatt (MW) combustion turbine generator and 270,000 lb/hr of steam capacity. Natural gas will be the primary fuel used to operate the system. Two existing coal-fired boilers located at the nearby Southeast Plant will be retired upon commencement of commercial operation of the CHP system. b. Give a complete description of the proposed project and related new construction, including infrastructure needs. If the project is an expansion include a description of the existing facility. Emphasize: 1) construction, operation methods and features that will cause physical manipulation of the environment or will produce wastes, 2) modifications to existing equipment or industrial processes, 3) significant demolition, removal or remodeling of existing structures, and 4) timing and duration of construction activities. Overview: The University of Minnesota intends to construct a new CHP facility. The emission units will be installed in the existing Main Plant Building located on the west side of the Minneapolis campus. Originally constructed in 1912, the Main Plant provided steam to the campus until completion of the Southeast Plant Renovation Project in 2000. The plant will now be rehabilitated as a modern, energy-efficient facility. The Main CHP Project source emission and air pollution control units will consist of the following equipment: • A 22.8 MW combustion turbine generator (CTG, gross power output) • A 210 MMbtu/hr duct burner system • A 270,000 lb steam/hr heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) • A selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system to control nitrogen oxides • An oxidation catalyst to control carbon monoxide emissions Natural gas will be the primary fuel used to operate the CHP system. Ultra low-sulfur distillate fuel (ULSD) will be used during periods of natural gas curtailment. ULSD contains no more than 15 parts per million (ppm) sulfur, which will minimize both sulfur dioxide and particulate emissions from the units. In addition, Southeast Boilers 3 and 4 (EU004 and EU005) will be retired upon commencement of commercial operation of the CHP system. These coal-fired boilers are more than 60 years old and no longer meet the University’s reliability requirements or sustainability goals. The University of Minnesota will continue operating the remaining three boilers at the Southeast Plant. The University of Minnesota, Twin Cities – Combined Heat and Power Project Environmental Assessment Minneapolis, Minnesota 2 Worksheet Construction Methods: The University will use the existing Main Building to house the CHP system. The building interior will be demolished and bracing will be used to maintain structural integrity while new superstructure and equipment is put in place. The building shell will be retained but a new roof will be installed. The new facility will therefore have the same footprint as currently exists at the site. Equipment and construction materials will be delivered to the site by truck, using access roads from the west and north. Construction specifications require a solid waste management plan for all waste materials, including demolition debris. University policy requires waste minimization/pollution prevention as well as the recycling of all materials that have an existing market. It is expected that some asbestos and/or mercury or lead-containing materials may be discovered during demolition.

In 1883, the Minneapolis Mill Company hired William de la Barre as an engineer and agent for the waterpower works. A number of the mills had installed auxiliary steam engines to supplement the waterpower. Meanwhile De la Barre proposed to solve the waterpower problem by increasing the head and fall available. Working on the West Side canal (Minnesota Historical Society) According to Kane, “De la Barre undertook to deepen the canal and lower the tailraces under his jurisdiction, while the millers promised to lower their wheel pits, tailraces, and headraces. Before the year ended, De la Barre had deepened the canal from 14 to 20 feet and lengthened it from 600 to 950 feet. The expansion increased its flowage capacity from 30 to 40 per cent and raised the water level to produce more power by bring water to the lessees’ wheels at a greater head.

  • Technical Report #166: I-35W Bridge Collapse and Response
    U.S. Fire Administration/Technical Report Series I-35W Bridge Collapse and Response Minneapolis, Minnesota USFA-TR-166/August 2007 U.S. Fire Administration Fire Investigations Program he U.S. Fire Administration (USFA) develops reports on selected major fires throughout the country. The fires usually involve multiple deaths or a large loss of property, but the primary T criterion for deciding to write a report is whether it will result in significant “lessons learned.” In some cases these lessons bring to light new knowledge about fire—the effect of building con- struction or contents, human behavior in fire, etc. In other cases, the lessons are not new, but are serious enough to highlight once again because of another fire tragedy. In some cases, special reports are developed to discuss events, drills, or new technologies or tactics that are of interest to the fire service. The reports are sent to fire magazines and are distributed at national and regional fire meetings. The reports are available on request from USFA. Announcements of their availability are published widely in fire journals and newsletters. This body of work provides detailed information on the nature of the fire problem for policymakers who must decide on allocations of resources between fire and other pressing problems, and within the fire service to improve codes and code enforcement, training, public fire education, building technology, and other related areas. The USFA, which has no regulatory authority, sends an experienced fire investigator into a commu- nity after a major incident only after having conferred with the local fire authorities to ensure that USFA’s assistance and presence would be supportive and would in no way interfere with any review of the incident they are themselves conducting.
