Dabhol Power Water- oil/naphtha contamination continues to be observed in
villages water wells. The villages are being supplied drinking water. The villages are currently not hostile. The subsurface at the plant was found to be very fractured allowing the spread of the contamination. Additionally the sea water cooling tower discharge basin and the waste treatment plant have overflowed to cause surface water contamination in a stream. The current monsoon season rains have somewhat mitigated the concentrations of this contamination. The hydrogeological consultant continues to investigate. Ecoelectrica -The date for the EPA notice of violation conference has still not been set, but is expected to occur in the next two weeks. Drafts of the presentation to be used at the conference are being reviewed. Marc Phillips continues to provide plant personnel assistance in resolving continuous emission monitoring equipment and protocol issues. I have asked Marc to prepare a list of actions remaining to be and potential personnel, including contract consultants, capable of performing them, in order to set the plant on course for compliant operations in the future. Pipeline Safety Legislation- nothing new this week. Jeff Keeler has scheduled meetings for Stan Horton today with high level congressional staff and Department of Transportation officials Marc Phillips discussed a consultants proposal to perform methane leaks surveys at 10 to 15 GPG compressor stations in return for potential greenhouse gas credits in lieu of monetary payment. GPG management will review the proposal and if feedback is positive Marc will pursue discussions with emission traders.
