SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EKPC 

proposes to construct and operate two 

nominal 278-megawatt coal-based 

electric generating units at the Smith 

site, southeast of Winchester, Kentucky, 

in Clark County. Fuel will be supplied 

to the plant site by rail or truck. The 

construction of a substation and 

approximately 1 mile of 345-kV 

transmission line would be required to 

connect the new plant to EKPC’s 

transmission system. The line would go 

northwest from the CFB substation to 

the existing Combustion Turbine 

substation. EKPC’s schedule calls for the 

first of these facilities to be in 

commercial operation by June 2010 and 

the second by November 2012. 

Alternatives to be considered by RUS 

include no action, purchased power, 

renewable energy sources, distributed 

generation, and alternative site 

locations. Comments regarding the 

proposed project may be submitted 

(orally or in writing) at the public 

scoping meetings or in writing no later 

than November 20, 2006 to RUS at the 

address provided in this notice. 

RUS will use input provided by 

government agencies, private 

organizations, and the public in the 

preparation of a Draft SEIS. The Draft 

SEIS will be available for review and 

comment for 45 days. A Final SEIS will 

then be prepared that considers all 

comments received. The Final 

Supplemental EIS will be available for 

review and comment for 30 days. 

Following the 30-day comment period, 

RUS will prepare a Record of Decision 

(ROD). Notices announcing the 

availability of the Draft and Final SEIS 

and the ROD will be published in the 

Federal Register and in local 

newspapers. 

Any final action by RUS related to the 

proposed project will be subject to, and 

contingent upon, compliance with all 

relevant Federal, State and local 

environmental laws and regulations and 

completion of the environmental review 

requirements as prescribed in the RUS 

Environmental Policies and Procedures 

(7 CFR part 1794).
