75-8-105. Remediation plan. (1) No later than 3 months after a coal-fired generating unit is retired and no earlier than 5 years prior to a coal-fired generating unit's planned retirement, an owner shall submit a proposed remediation plan that contains:

(a) the name of the operator of the coal-fired generating unit and the names and addresses of all owners of the coal-fired generating unit;

(b) a general overview of the site where the unit is located, the unit itself, and affected property;

(c) the current and reasonably anticipated future uses of affected property; and

(d) remediation information, including:

(i) a list of reports, studies, or other evaluations related to remediation and specific remediation measures already completed or under way pursuant to any applicable legal obligation; and

(ii) the manner in which the remediation measures satisfy the requirements of 75-8-107 and a description of how the owner will comply.

(2) (a) If a coal-fired generating unit has more than one owner, the owners may jointly submit a remediation plan in accordance with this part.

(b) If the owners are unable to submit a joint plan, then each owner of the coal-fired generating unit that is being retired or is retired is responsible for meeting the requirements of this part. If separate plans are filed, the department shall ensure that the plans detail legal obligations. If there is a conflict in the plans, the department shall reconcile the conflict to ensure that the plans are consistent with existing law and legal obligations.

(3) A plan required pursuant to subsection (1) may consist of a plan for more than one unit that is retired at the same time and planned for simultaneous remediation.

(4) The filing of a plan is not a commitment to retire a coal-fired generating unit on any particular date that is not otherwise required by an applicable legal obligation.

History: En. Sec. 5, Ch. 320, L. 2017.
