Hi Shaheera, 

I have found a copy of the actual Public Notice that was published in the Redding Record Searchlight on May 1, 1995. 

This notice states the Districts intent to issue a PSD permit to SPI Anderson and that the public comment period is open 

for 30 days. 

There are also other documents which show proof of notice being given to EPA Region IX and the California Air 

Resources Board. These documents are dated May 4, 1995. 

I have scanned these documents and attached them to this email. 

Thanks for the well wishes and I hope your new year is off to a good start!

Hi John,

Happy New Year!

Thanks again for sending me the final PSD permit issued by Shasta County AQMD in June 1995 for the SPI‐Anderson

facility.

I was wondering if you could tell me when the AQMD issued the draft permit for public comment (1994/1995

timeframe)? Does the AQMD have any records regarding this (e.g., a public notice or cover letter showing the date when

it was issued for public comment) that you could send me?

I would really appreciate your assistance.

Thanks and I look forward to your response.

The District received the initial ATC application from SPI Anderson on 11/21/94. The permit processing occurred between 

11/21/94 and 6/15/95 when the initial PSD/ATC was issued.

Thank you for the information which is very helpful!

Just one more question: was there any action on the permit in 1994?  

The reason I ask is because some of our documents say the permit was issued in 1994 and I am not sure where this

information comes from. I took over the project after the July 2013 EAB decision. I would greatly appreciate any

clarification on this.

Thanks.
