  • Comments – Ngos APS IRP Docket
    BEFORE THE ARIZONA CORPORATION COMMISSION Bob Burns, Chairman Boyd Dunn, Commissioner Sandra Kennedy, Commissioner Lea Marquez Peterson, Commissioner Justin Olson, Commissioner RE: APS 2020 RESOURCE PLANNING DOCKET NO. E-00000V-19-0034 AND PROCUREMENT Overview Diné CARE, Tó Nizhóni Ání and Black Mesa Trust (Navajo and Hopi nongovernmental community organizations or NGOs) respectfully submit the following joint comments for your review in response to the Arizona Corporation Commission’s (ACC) consideration of Arizona Public Service Company’s (APS) 2020 integrated resource plan and procurement process in the above-referenced docket. We submitted comments in a previous APS resource planning proceeding, Docket No. E-00000V-15-0094, in 2018, and after reviewing the current plans, we acknowledge the important steps APS has taken to improve on the last iteration of its resource planning. It is notable that in just two short years, the utility has transformed itself from a dramatic over-reliance on coal and natural gas to a commitment to de-carbonizing its generation portfolio over the coming years. That, in itself, is laudable. However, our review of APS’s 2020 IRP still leaves a number of critical issues unaddressed that we first identified in 2018 and which remain deficiencies in the current plan, especially as they relate to the long-term prosperity and wellbeing of the Navajo Nation, the Hopi Tribe and coal-impacted tribal communities. In light of the problems summarized below, we recommend that the Commission take steps to improve this resource plan in ways that provide advantages for both tribes – while still benefiting the utilities’ customers and shareholders.

  • Arizona Technical Support Document (PDF)
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Technical Support Document ARIZONA Nonattainment Area Designations for the 2010 Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) Primary National Ambient Air Quality Standard Summary Pursuant to section 107(d) of the Clean Air Act (CAA), EPA must initially designate areas as either “nonattainment,” “attainment,” or “unclassifiable” for the 2010 1-hour sulfur dioxide (SO2) primary national ambient air quality standard (NAAQS). The CAA defines a nonattainment area as one that does not meet the NAAQS or that contributes to poor air quality in a nearby area that does not meet the NAAQS. Table 1 below identifies the counties and portions of counties in Arizona that EPA has initially designated “nonattainment” based on monitored violations. EPA is not yet prepared to designate other areas in Arizona, and will address such areas in a subsequent round of final designations. Table 1. Nonattainment Designations for Arizona Arizona’s Recommendation of EPA’s Designated Area (listed alphabetically) Areas/Counties Nonattainment Areas/Counties Hayden Gila County (partial) Nonattainment Nonattainment Pinal County (partial) Nonattainment Nonattainment Miami Gila County (partial) Nonattainment Nonattainment Background On June 2, 2010, EPA revised the primary SO2 NAAQS (75 FR 35520, June 22, 2010) by establishing a new 1-hour standard at a level of 75 parts per billion (ppb), which is met at an ambient air quality monitoring site when the 3-year average of the annual 99th percentile of the daily maximum 1-hour average concentrations is less than or equal to 75 ppb, as determined in accordance with Appendix T of 40 CFR part 50. 40 CFR 50.17(a)-(b). EPA has determined that this is the level necessary to provide protection of public health with an adequate margin of safety, especially for children, the elderly, and those with asthma.
