Document Description
On January 17, 2001, Governor Gray Davis proclaimed a State of Emergency due to constraints on electriity supplies in California. The Governor declared that all reasonable conservation, allocation, and service restriction measures would not alleviate an energy supply emergency. As a result, the Governor issued Executive Orders D-22-01, D-24-01, D-25-01, D-26-01 and D-28-01 to expedite the permitting of peaking and renewable power plants that can be on line by September 30 2001.
The eight project were built consistent with the certifications issued by the Commission and came on-line in the third or fourth quarter of 2001. The Energy Commission Decision for each life of these facilities included a provision that would allow for the certification to be extended for the life of the project, provided that the conditions of certification were current and in compliance, the project was permanent in nature, and air emission credits were in place.
