From: Sierra Club on behalf of Robyn Polinsky Sent: Tuesday, May 06, 2014 6:03 PM To: Cornwell, Eric Subject: No More Second Chances for Plant Washington May 6, 2014 Ambient Air Branch Manager Eric Cromwell GA Dear Ambient Air Branch Manager Cromwell, As a resident of Georgia, I care deeply about our state's clean air and clean water resources. Permits for the proposed Plant Washington have time and again been sent back to the drawing boards because they have not met federal clean air and clean water safeguards. The developer of the proposed Plant Washington has had almost 18 months to start his project, but has proven yet again his inability to fulfill permit guidelines. Dean Alford and POWER4Georgians should not be given ANOTHER second-chance to pollute Georgia's clean air and clean water. I am writing you today to ask you to deny POWER4Georgian's request for a permit extension, and to request that you host a hearing to hear the public's overwhelming opposition to a permit extension before making your decision.

Please deny POWER4Georgians’ request for a permit extension for their proposed coal-fired Plant Washington. As developer of the proposed Plant Washington, POWER4Georgians had its chance with more than 18 months to start the project. Yet no dirt was turned in fulfillment of permit guidelines.

As a resident of Georgia, I care deeply about our state’s air and water resources. I’m concerned about the potential impact of POWER4Georgians’ proposed Plant Washington, which has already required years of your attention to hold its developer to federal clean air and clean water safeguards.
