Document Description
The Modesto Irrigation District (MID) proposes to build a 49.6 MW Reciprocating Engine Power Plant adjacent to the existing Woodland Generation Station to be known as the "Woodland 3 Project" or the "Project."
The Project will be comprised of 6 Wartsila reciprocating engines to be operated in simple-cycle mode, with no steam generation, but using selective catalytic reduction (SCR) and oxidation catalyst to reduce air emissions. The Project will also require the reconductoring of 2 existing MID 69-kilovolt (kV) subtransmission lines that tie into the existing PG&E natural gas supply pipeline. The Project would be located in the City of Modesto on a plot of land that has become available because the City is in the process of relocating and realigning Graphics Drive consistent with the vision set forth in the Redevleopment Agency's Master Plan as approved in September 2007.
