PRE-FILED TESTIMONY OF BRETT J.
MARSHALL
Good morning, my name is Brett J. Marshall.
I am the Water Programs Group Leader for
Dynegy Midwest Generation, Inc.
I am aware that I filed my testimony after the deadline set by
the Hearing Officer in this matter.
However, prior to
having seen the testimony ofMr. David
Thomas of the Illinois Department ofNatural Resources
—
filed on January
19, 2001, the final
date to pre-file testimony
—
I would have had no reason to raise concerns before the Board in this
proceeding.
The testimony presented here today is specifically in response to testimony provided by
David
L. Thomas, Chief, Illinois Natural History Survey, with the Illinois Department ofNatural
Resources.
In his testimony, Mr. Thomas asked the Board to designate four streams in Illinois as
ORWs.
Of the four streams, the Middle Fork Vermilion River is of great concern to Dynegy
Midwest
Generation, Inc. (DMG), because our Vermilion Power Station
is
located on this
stream.
It was stated in Mr. Thomas’s testimony that there are no current discharges with
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits in these stream segments.
See Testimony ofDavid L. Thomas, dated January
19, 2001
at 2.
The Vermilion Power Station
consists oftwo-coal-burning steam generating units.
Unit
1, built
in
1955,
has a nominal net
generating capacity of 74 megawatts
and Unit 2 was built in
1956
and is capable ofgenerating
102 megawatts.
Wastewater discharges from the Station are authorized by the Illinois
Environmental Protection Agency in compliance with the National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System.
The most recent NIPDES permit was re-issued October
1,
1996, and identifies three
outfalls that discharge to the Middle Fork Vermilion River.
A copy ofNPDES Permit
IL0004057 is attached (attachment
1).
Also stated in Mr. Thomas’s testimony was the fact that the Middle Fork Vermilion River
is Illinois’
only nationally designated wild and scenic river. j~,
at 2.
While this is a correct
statement, it is important to note that, before the river was designated a wild and scenic river, a
very important conservation easement agreement between the illinois Department of
Conservation (now Illinois Department ofNatural Resources) and DMG (formerly Illinois Power
Company) had to be reached.
Attached is a copy ofthat easement agreement (attachment 2).
This
agreement specifically grants the station the right to continue to operate, maintain,
and
improve all its facilities as it has in the past, including
any additional facilities provided for under
this
agreement.
Examples ofnew facilities include a new ash pond, new transmission and
distribution
lines, additional water intake pump house and, if necessary, a new bridge.
My question is, “How can the Illinois Department of Natural Resources propose to
designate a water segment as an Outstanding Resource Water, which would effectively preclude
any
further development, given the fact that its predecessor agency entered into an agreement to
2
allow future development?”
This appears to
be a potential conflict lacking resolve.
It further
calls to question the diligence undertaken by the staffofthe Illinois Natural History
Survey in
proposing the stream’s designation as an
ORW.
The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency has proposed rules for designating ORWs
for the Board’s consideration.
The issues I raise, I believe, highlight the need to adopt rules and
formal procedures for such designations prior to any attempt to
name outstanding streams.
I am
aware that the Illinois Environmental Regulatory Group (IERG), ofwhich DMG is a member,
has asked the Board to strike the testimony ofMr. Thomas and the Illinois Department of
Natural Resources’ motion to designate four streams in Illinois as ORWs.
I urge the Board to
grant IERG’s request.

1996, because
it
is inconsistent
with
applicable
regulations and/or policy:
Applicable federal regulations as found in 40 CFR 423.13
limits the discharge of
Total
Residual Chlorine to two hours
per day from any single generating unit.
Special Condition
3
shall remain in the permit to ensure compliance with
federal regulations.
The Permit as issued is effective as of the date indicated on the first page of the Permit.
You have the right to appeal
any condition of
the

For the purpose of these calculations,

USGS
gauging
station
at
Kickapoo
State
Park,
subtracting
from
that
measurement,
any
concurrent
upstream

to the river.
Effluent boron,

from
the analysis of a 24-hour
composite sample collected once-weekly of the ash
pond
discharge.
Upstream boron, sulfate, and TDS
concentrations. C(us),
shall be
determined
by the means of grab
samples
taken upstream, once per week
on
the same day that the ash pond outfalls
are
sampled.
If river conditions
(such

prohibit
sampling,
the
Permittee may
use the
long-term average
upstream

of 0.16
mg/I, 63

house.
Downstream
sampling
data
shall
ce submitted with the January, April, July, and October Discharge
Monitoring Reports.
At the time of application for renewal
cf the permit, the Permittee may request that the composite effluent sampling be
changed
to grab, subject to Agency review
and approval..
n order to
comply with the monitoring and reporting requirements of the monthly
Discharge
Monitoring Reports
for Outfalls 001
and 003, the Permittee shall also include a table which will indicate the actual measured daily ash pond discharge flows from
each
ash
pond
for
the
month,
the
effluent concentrations,
the
computed downstream
river concentrations,
the
computed
~“aximum
allowable daily flows, the computed maximum allowable daily mass loading and theactual mass discharged from each
~tfall.The weekly measured boron,
sulfates,

effluent concentration values (upstream
and end of pipe) shall
also be
reported.
Supporting calculations
which indicate how the maximum
allowable daily flows and mass loadings were calculated
shall
be
attached
as
well.
SPECIAL CONDITION
14.
The Agency
has
determined
that the effluent limitations in this permit constitute BAT/BCT for storm
Nater which
is
treated in the existing treatment facilities for purposes of this permit reissuance,
and no
pollution prevention
plan
will
be
required for such
storm
water.
In
addition
to the
chemical
specific monitoring
required elsewhere in
this permit,
the
perrnittee
shall
conduct
an
annual
inspection
of the
facility
site to
identify
areas
contributing
to’
a
storm
water discharge
associated
with
industrial
activity,
arid
determine
whether
any
facility
modifications
have
occurred
which
result
in
previously-treated storm water discharges
no
longer receiving
treatment.
If any such
discharges are
identified
the permittee
shall request a modification ofthis permit within 30
days after the inspection.
Records of the annual
inspection shall
be
retained
~ythe permittee for the term of this permit and be
made
available to theAgency
on
request.

Special Conditions
This Special Condition does not relieve the permittee of any
State orfederal requirements for management of hazardous waste.
Documentation

maintained by the permittee.
SPECIAL CONDITION
16.
The
Agency has
received the results of Illinois Power Company’s Whole Effluent Toxicity testing
and river sediment sampling
at outfalls

required
tests
indicate
no acute toxicity to the three test species.
Therefore additional whole effluent toxicity testing will not be required
at this time.
River sediment samples taken downstream of outfall 001 and downstream of outfall 003 do not indicate the presence of boron
downstream of these outfalls.
Based
on
these results, no further sediment sampling will be
required.
