The Department of Energy proposed to implement provisions of H.B. 2021 related to energy facility siting to establish clear standards and procedures for future siting decisions related to fossil-fueled power plants and to clarify what constitutes a "significant increase" in the gross carbon dioxide emissions that are reasonably likely to result from operation of a fossil-fueled power plant. A hearing will be held June 23, 2022. Comments are due the same date. See https://secure.sos.state.or.us/oard/viewRedlinePDF.action?filingRsn=50831.
