NPDES Projects: Kyrene Expansion Project
The provisions of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) apply to issuance of New Source NPDES permits. EPA has determined that the proposed Kyrene Expansion Project (KEP), regarding a power plant in Tempe, Arizona, is a New Source as defined under the Clean Water Act. EPA has determined that the project will not have a significant impact on the environment and has issued an environmental assessment (EA) and a draft finding of no significant impact (FSNI).
Following are electronic versions of the EA or draft FSNI for this project.
- Finding of No Significant Impact (FNSI)
- Environmental Assessment (PDF) (132 pp, 10.9 M, About PDF) Very Large File
- Archaeological Testing (PDF), Environmental Assessment, Appendix F (93 pp, 6.8 M) Very Large File
To conclude the NEPA process, the following final reports were produced in 2003.
