Notice of Cancellation of 

Environmental Impact Statement for 

the McIntosh Unit 4 Pressurized 

Circulating Fluidized Bed 

Demonstration Project

AGENCY: Department of Energy.

ACTION: Notice of cancellation of 

Environmental Impact Statement 

Process. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Energy 

(DOE) is canceling the preparation of an 

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) 

for a proposal by the City of Lakeland 

to design, construct, and operate a 

project known as the McIntosh Unit 4 

Pressurized Circulating Fluidized Bed 

Demonstration Project in Lakeland, 

Florida. DOE selected the City of 

Lakeland’s proposal for further 

consideration under DOE’s Clean Coal 

Technology Demonstration Program 

competitive solicitation. The City of 

Lakeland proposed constructing the 

demonstration project at the site of the 

existing C.D. McIntosh Junior Power 

Plant along the northeastern shore of 

Lake Parker. The proposed project was 

intended to demonstrate advanced 

circulating fluidized bed combustion 

technologies using a variety of low and 

high sulfur coal to produce electricity. 

DOE published a Notice of Intent to 

prepare an EIS for the proposal in the 

Federal Register on March 26, 1999 (64 

FR 14710), and conducted a public 

scoping meeting in the City of 

Lakeland’s City Commission Chambers 

on April 13, 1999. The proposed project 

has been discontinued. As a result, DOE 

is canceling the EIS process.

Notice of Cancellation of 

Environmental Impact Statement for 

the Colorado Springs Utilities NextGeneration CFB Coal Generating Unit, 

Fountain, CO

AGENCY: Department of Energy.

ACTION: Notice of cancellation of 

Environmental Impact Statement 

Process. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Energy 

(DOE) is canceling the preparation of an 

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) 

for a proposal by Colorado Springs 

Utilities (CSU) to design, construct, and 

operate a project known as the NextGeneration Circulating Fluidized Bed 

(CFB) Coal Generating Unit near 

Fountain, El Paso County, Colorado. 

DOE selected CSU’s proposal for further 

consideration under DOE’s Clean Coal 

Power Initiative competitive 

solicitation. CSU proposed building a 

new power plant at a site adjacent to the 

existing 227-megawatt Ray D. Nixon 

Power Plant on the Clear Springs Ranch, 

a 5,000-acre, CSU-owned property 

located approximately 17 miles south of 

Colorado Springs. The proposed project 

was intended to demonstrate advanced 

technologies for using a variety of fuels, 

including Powder River Basin subbituminous coal from Wyoming, 

bituminous coals from Illinois and 

Pennsylvania, waste coal, and wood 

waste, to produce electricity to meet 

forecasted demand. DOE issued a Notice 

of Intent to prepare an EIS for the 

proposal in the Federal Register on 

August 15, 2003 (68 FR 48893), and 

conducted a public scoping meeting in 

Fountain, Colorado, on September 3, 

2003. On December 17, 2003, CSU 

announced its intention to cancel plans 

for the proposed project. In a letter to 

DOE dated January 9, 2004, CSU 

withdrew its application for the project. 

As a result, DOE is canceling the EIS 

process.
