WASHINGTON DEPARTMENT OF ECOLOGY NOTICE OF 30-DAY PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD FOR AN AIR POLLUTION SOURCE VoltaGrid – W-1 Electric Generation Plant East of Road O NW and north of Road L NW Quincy, WA 98848 We propose to approve VoltaGrid, LLC - WA-1 Electric Generation Plant (VoltaGrid) Air Quality Notice of Construction (NOC) application. VoltaGrid submitted a NOC application for their site location east of Road O NW and north of Road L NW, in Quincy. Parcel 0401414050 at Section 4, Township 20 N, Range 24 E. VoltaGrid supplies ready to use affordable, and clean power and fuel solutions for remote and grid-parallel applications. VoltaGrid is proposing to install 14 prime power natural gas generators, 30 megawatts (MWe) total power supply. VoltaGrid plans to install on the generators, selective catalytic reduction controls for nitrogen oxides and an oxidation catalyst controls for carbon monoxide (CO) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Emission increases from this project include: · 41 tons per year carbon monoxide (CO) · 10 tons per year volatile organic compounds (VOCs) · 8.8 tons per year particulate matter (PM) · 8.7 tons per year nitrogen oxides (NOx) · 6.3 tons per year formaldehyde (CH2O) · 6.2 tons per year sulfur dioxide (SO2) A notice of construction (NOC) air permit limits the amount of air pollutants a business can emit. A NOC permit is required before installing a new source of air pollution or modifying an existing source of air pollution. This permit is sometimes called a “pre-construction permit” because a business must have one before starting construction or operating their business. Project documents are available for review at: ecology.wa.gov/VG Ecology’s determined this proposal satisfies the requirements of Chapters 173-400 WAC, and plans to approve the application. Ecology invites the public to comment. An online public hearing will be held if Ecology determines there is significant public interest. An online public hearing is tentatively scheduled for Monday, August 10, 2026, at 6:00 p.m. If we do not receive written requests for the online public hearing by 11:59 p.m. on Wednesday, July 22, 2026, then the hearing will be cancelled.

DEPARTAMENTO de ECOLOGÍA de WASHINGTON AVISO DE PERÍODO DE COMENTARIOS PÚBLICOS DE 30 DÍAS PARA UNA FUENTE DECONTAMINACIÓN DEL AIRE AVISO DE EMISIÓN DE BORRADOR DE PERMISO VoltaGrid – W-1 Electric Generation Plant East of Road O NW and north of Road L NW Quincy, WA 98848 Proponemos aprobar la solicitud de aviso de construcción para la calidad del aire de la planta de generación eléctrica WA-1 de VoltaGrid. VoltaGrid, LLC - WA-1 Electric Generation Plant (VoltaGrid) presentó una solicitud de construcción para sus instalaciones, ubicadas al este de Road O NW y al norte de Road L NW, en Quincy. Parcela 0401414050 en la Sección 4, Municipio 20 N, Rango 24 E. VoltaGrid suministra soluciones de energía y combustible listas para ser usadas, asequibles y limpias, para aplicaciones remotas y paralelas a la red de distribución. VoltaGrid propone instalar 14 generadores de gas natural de primera potencia, con un suministro de energía total de 30 megavatios (MWe). VoltaGrid planea instalar varios controles en los generadores : controles de reducción catalítica selectiva para óxidos de nitrógeno, y controles de catalizador de oxidación para monóxido de carbono (CO) y compuestos orgánicos volátiles (COV). Los aumentos de emisiones de este proyecto incluyen: · 41 toneladas por año de monóxido de carbono (CO) · 10 toneladas por año de compuestos orgánicos volátiles (COV) · 8.8 toneladas por año de material particulado (PM) · 8.7 toneladas por año de óxidos de nitrógeno (NOx) · 6.3 toneladas por año de formaldehído (CH2O) · 6.2 toneladas por año de dióxido de azufre (SO2) Un permiso de aviso de construcción (NOC) limita la cantidad de contaminantes atmosféricos que una empresa puede emitir. Se requiere un permiso NOC antes de instalar una nueva fuente de contaminación atmosférica o modificar una existente. Este permiso a veces se denomina “permiso de preconstrucción” porque una empresa debe obtenerlo antes de comenzar la construcción o la operación de su negocio.
