OREGON DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY PUBLIC NOTICE South Dunes Power Plant Information Meeting on Notice of Intent Summary Date this Notice was Issued: August 21, 2012 Proposal: 380 megawatt nominal capacity thermal combustion gas plant Location: On the east side of Jordan Cove, North Spit of Coos Bay, one mile north of the city of North Bend, Oregon. (See map on page 3) Notice of Intent Information Meeting: Date: September 11, 2012 Time: 6:30 p.m. Location: North Bend Public Library 1800 Sherman Avenue North Bend, OR 97459 Notice of Intent Public Comment Deadline: September 21, 2012 (5:00 p.m.) Expected Date of Application for Site Certificate: December 2012 Introduction The Oregon Department of Energy (ODOE), which serves as staff to the Energy Facility Siting Council (EFSC), has received a Notice of Intent from Jordan Cove Energy Project, LP (Applicant), to file an application for the construction and operation of a thermal combustion gas-powered electric generating facility. The proposed facility, called the South Dunes Power Plant, would have a nominal generating capacity of about 380 megawatts. According to Oregon law, the Applicant must obtain approval (a Site Certificate) from EFSC before building and operating the South Dunes Power Plant. Description of Proposed Project The South Dunes Power Plant would consist of a combined cycle plant used to supply uninterrupted power to the proposed Jordan Cove Liquefied Natural Gas Plant (LNG Terminal), as well as process steam for gas conditioning prior to delivery to the LNG Plant. Boil off gas from the proposed LNG Plant would provide primary fuel for the South Dunes Power Plant, with supplemental gas coming from the Pacific Connector Gas Pipeline. The facility would also include the following related or supporting facilities: * Switchyard * Up to 10 miles of 230-kilovolt and 115-kilovolt transmission lines * Interconnecting water pipelines * Gas conditioning facility * Access roads * Administration building * Shop and warehouse building * Control building * Firewater pond and pumps * Parking Please note: The proposed LNG terminal will be reviewed under the jurisdiction of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, and is not considered a related and supporting facility for the purposes of the Oregon Energy Facility Siting Council's review of the South Dunes Power Plant. Location of Proposed Project The applicant proposes to locate the project on an approximately 130-acre site on the east side of Jordan Cove on the North Spit of Coos Bay, approximately one mile north of the city of North Bend. A since-demolished linerboard facility previously occupied the site. The EFSC Review Process The Site Certificate review process is a consolidated one-stop permitting process in which EFSC determines compliance with its specific standards, as well as all other state and local permitting agencies. There are two exceptions to this. The first is the land use standard, which the Applicant can choose to meet by making an application to the local jurisdiction, in this case, Coos County. The Applicant has indicated it intends meet the land use standard by obtaining local land use approval. The second relates to federally delegated permits, which do not revert to EFSC jurisdiction. For example, the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality retains authority over the Clean Air Act and the Clean Water Act permits. What is a Notice of Intent (NOI)? The NOI introduces the project and allows the public, local governments and affected agencies to identify issues of concern as well as applicable requirements. It contains preliminary information about the proposed facility, its location, and its potential environmental and community impacts. The NOI is not the actual application to construct the facility, only a notice to ODOE and the public that the Applicant intends to submit an Application for a Site Certificate in December 2012. The actual application will contain much more detail than the NOI. Public Information Meeting ODOE and Applicant will hold a public information meeting on September 11, 2012 at 6:30 p.m. at the North Bend Public Library. ODOE will provide an explanation of the NOI as well as the entire application and review process, including the opportunities for public participation. The Applicant will provide a description of the proposed project. Please Note: This is an information meeting only and not a public hearing. ODOE staff and the Applicant will be available to answer questions after the presentation, but public testimony will not be taken at this point in the process. Comment Period Public comments on the NOI are encouraged to help the Applicant identify issues and concerns early in the process. Comments may be submitted in writing by mail, e-mail, hand-delivery or fax and are due by September 21, 2012 at 5 p.m. Please send comments to: Chris Green, Applications Analyst Oregon Department of Energy 625 Marion St. NE Salem, OR 97301-3742 E-mail: chris.green@state.or.us Phone: 503-378-5050 Fax: 503-373-7806 Please Note: This is only the first opportunity to provide comments.

Additional details of the project can be found in the Notice of Intent available at: http://cms.oregon.gov/energy/Siting/Pages/SDP.aspx The applicant has provided hard copies of the NOI to the North Bend Public Library and the Coos Bay Public Library.
