JOINT MOTION TO TERMINATE VARIANCE

NOW COMES IPH, LLC (formerly known as ILLINOIS POWER HOLDINGS, LLC),1

a Delaware limited liability company (‘IPH”) by and through its attorneys, Brown, Hay &

Stephens, LLP, and AMERENENERGY MEDINA VALLEY COGEN, LLC, an Illinois limited.

liability company (“Medina Valley”), by and through its aftorneys, Schiff Hardin, LLP, and

pursuant to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 101.500, hereby submit this Joint Motion to Terminate Variance

(“Motion”) and state as follows:

1. IPH, Medina Valley and AMEREN ENERGY RESOURCES, LLC (“AER”) filed

their Petition for Variance (“Petition”) with the Illinois Pollution Control Board (“Board”) on July

22, 2013 seeking dual variances from the sulfur dioxide (“SO2”) annual emission rate limits

provided in 35 Ill. Adrn. Code 225.233(e)(3)(C)(iii) and (iv) of the Illinois Multi-Pollutant

Standard (“MPS”) as applicable to the group of seven coal-fired electrical generating stations that

Illinois PowerHoldings, LLC was renamed “IPH, LLC” on April 30, 2015. See Exhibit!, Affidavit of Shannon L.Brown at ¶ 3 (“Brown Aff.”).

1

Electronic Filing - Received, Clerk’s Office : OR/02/2016

are together subject to those emission limits (“MPS Group”). The timing of the Petition was

necessary in order to allow a seamless regulatory transition in concert with a planned change in

ownership of the MPS Group from the then owner, AER,2 to the current owners, IPH and Medina

Valley.3

2. In the Board’s November 21, 2013 Order (“Order”), the Board granted the Petition

and allowed the combined dual variances for the electrical generating units in the MPS Group from

the applicable requirements of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 225.233(e)(3)(C)(iii) for a period beginning

January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2019 and 35 Ill. Adm. Code 225.233(e)(3)(C)(iv) for a

period beginning January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2019, subject to the conditions outlined

therein (the “Variance”).

3. IPH and Medina Valley have complied with all conditions of the Variance since

acquiring the electrical generating units in the MPS Group. Brown Aft at ¶9~ 4-5; Birk Aft at ¶ 5.

PH has submitted annual reports to the illinois Environmental Protection Agency (the “Agency”)

demonstrating the combined tons ofmass 502 emissions and the overall SO2 annual emission rate

from the five operating power stations in the MPS Group: Coffeen, Duck Creek, ED. Edwards,

Joppa, and Newton. Those reports, which have also been included in IPH’s Annual Emissions

Reports, show the mass SO2 emissions for each time period (October 1,2013 through December

31, 2013, and each calendar year thereafler), along with a running total of the remaining emissions

available under the system-wide mass SO2 emissions limit provided in the Variance. Moreover,

IPH permanently retired Edwards Unit 1 on January 1, 2016, as soon as was allowed by the

2 AER ceased to exist as an ongoing corporate entity as a consequence of corporate reorganizations related to the

December 2013 consummation of the transaction involving the change in ownership of the MPS Group. See Exhibit2.

IPH, through its subsidiaries, owns the five operating electrical generating stations (Coffeea, Duck Creek, E.D.Edwards, Joppa and Newton) in the MPS Group. Medina Valley owns the Hutsonville and Meredosia stations, eachof winch remains shutdown. See Board’s November 21, 2013 Opinion and Order (“Opinion”) at 7, 9-10. See alsoExhibit 3, Affidavit of Mark C. Birk at ¶ ¶ 4-5 (“Birk Aff’).

2

Electronic Filing - Received, [lerkTs Office : 08/02/2016

Midcontinent Independent System Operator, Inc. (“MISO”), the applicable regional transmission

organization; Duck Creek and Coffeen have operated their flue gas desulifirization (“FGD”)

systems to achieve a combined SO2 removal rate of at least 98 percent on a calendar year basis;

and Edwards, Joppa and Newton have burned low sulfi~r coal and have not exceeded 0.55 lb

SO2/nlmBtu combined on an calendar year annual average basis. Brown Aff. at ¶ 4.

4. Condition 9 of the Variance calls for defined activities regarding the Flue Gas

Desulfhrization project at the Newton Energy Center (LD. No. 079808AAA) (“Newton FGD

project”) to occur in accordance with the schedule established therein. All milestones to date set

forth in Condition 9 have been complied with through the date of this Motion. Id. at ¶ 5. Annual

progress reports on the status of Newton FGD project construction activities, including itemizing

activities completed during the year, have been submitted to the Agency. Id.

5. The Petition for the Variance was partially based on the need for electricity market

conditions to improve prior to completing the Newton FGD project, which would enable the MPS

Group to comply with the SO2 emission limits in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 225.233(e)(3)(C)(iii) and (iv).

See Petition, at 22. However, market conditions have not improved as expected. Since August

2013, energy prices at the Newton Energy Center have dropped approximately 20 percent. In

addition, the capacity market in the MISO has not improved and the Newton Energy Center failed

to clear any volume in the most recent MISO capacity auction. Thus, the Newton Energy Center

has failed to recover its basic operating costs, even before considering its ability to cover needed

capital expenditures that include the cost of completing the Newton FGD project. Gradual

recovery ofpower prices was an important considerationjustifying the delayed construction of the

Newton FGD project. The power price and capacity market recovery was central for IPH to

continue to Rind capital investments, including the Newton FGD project. Brown Aff. at ¶ 6.

3

Electronic Filing - Received, Clerk’s Office : OB/02/2016

6. Due to continued depressed energy pricing and the failure of the Newton Energy

Center to recover its basic operating costs, TPH has decided to permanently retire Newton Unit 2

effective September 15, 2016. Brown Aff. at ¶ 7. The MISO has approved the retirement of

Newton Unit 2. Id. With the permanent retirement of Newton Unit 2 the MPS Group can comply

with the SO2 emission limit in 35 Iii. Adm. Code 225.233(e)(3)(C)(iii) for the current calendar

year, 2016, without the Variance. Brown Aff. at ¶ 8. Moreover, in lieu of completing the Newton

FGD project identified in Condition 9, with the retirement of Newton Unit 2, the MPS Group can

comply with the 502 emission limit in 35 Iii. Adm. Code 225.233(e)(3)(C)(iv) without the

Variance in calendar year 2017 and each calendar year thereafter. Id.

7. A “variance is a temporary exemption from any specified rule, regulation,

requirement or order of the Board.” 35 111. Adm. Code l04.200(a)(1). Pursuant to Title TX of the

Environmental Protection Act (“Act”), 415 TLCS 5/35-38, the Board is responsible for granting

variances when a petitioner demonstrates that immediate compliance with a Board regulation

would impose an “arbitrary or unreasonable hardship” on the petitioner. 415 JLCS 5/35(a).

8. When conditions that were anticipated upon the filing of a petition for variance are

not realized and a petitioner can no longer justify the need for a variance, termination of the

variance is “the appropriate action”. Wallace Pharmaceuticals (n/ic/a Medpointe Pharmaceuticals

v. IEPA, Ill. Pollution Control Bd. Supp. op. 02-207 (April 7, 2005), p. 3. Tn Wallace

Pharmaceuticals, the petitioner sought a variance from the volatile organic material emission

control requirements of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 215.482(a) basedpartially on an anticipated increase in

emissions from three new products. Id. at 1. The variance sought was granted with conditions

imposed by the Board that required various research, testing, and evaluation for control technology

be accomplished by various times certain, and that regular progress reports be filed. Id. However,

4

Electronic Filing - Received, [lerk’s Office OR/02/2016

the production of those products ceased instead of increasing as anticipated. Id. at 3. The lack of

production resulted in compliance with the subject emissions standards, and there was rio longer

any need for the variance or compliance with the variance conditions. Id. As such, the Board

summarily terminated the variance, pursuant to the petitioner’s request. Id. at 3.

9. The Order does not address a scenario where one of the Newton electrical

generating units is permanently retired. However, with the retirement ofNewton Unit 2, it will no

longer be necessary to complete construction of the Newton FGD project (i.e., perform Conditions

9(c) - 9(g)) for the MPS Group to meet the MPS rule’s applicable SO2 emission rate limit as the

MPS Group will comply with the MPS limit beginning with 2016 (35 Ill. Adm. Code

225.233(e)(3)(C)(iii)) and continuing each year thereafter (35 Ill. Adm. Code

225.233(e)(3)(C)(iv)).

10. In these circumstances, termination by the Board of the granted Variance is

appropriate as IPH now is, and will continue to be, compliant with the underlying relevant

regulation, the MPS.

WHEREFORE, IPH, LLC, and AMERENENERGY MEDINA VALLEY COGEN, LLC,

request that the Board terminate the Variance, effective immediately upon Order of the Board.

Dear Mr Brown:

On August 8,2016 MiSO received a revised Attachment V Notice from Winds Power Marketing Companyfor the retirement of Newton Unit 2 effective September 25, 2016 with an accompanying request forMISO to consider the expechted retirement date. Previously MISO approved an Attachment V Notice ofsuspens~on [or the unit effective September 15, 2016 and a subsequent Attachment V Notice ofetremen rrec~~ve November 29 2016 Af or review of -he power s~~ctem rehabuity impacts, VBSO

determined that the earlier retirement of Newton Unit 2 would not result in violations of applicablereflcbihty criteria. Toerefore. Newton Unit 2 may Retire without the need for the generator to bedesignated as a System Support Resource C”SSR”) unit as defined in the Tariff

This letter acknowledges that MISO has received your amended Attachment V Notice revising theNewton Unit 2 retirement date to September 15, 2015. The decision to Retire is considered final andthe existing interconnection rights for the generators will be terminated as of the retirement datespecified in the revised Attachnient V Notice. Illinois Power Marketing Company may not modify thedecision to Retire Newton Unit 2 unless an Attachment x Request is submitted to enter the generationtnterconnection queue. As there were no reliability criteria violations, MISO will continue to preservethe confidentahtv of this Attachment V Notice. Please submit the necessary Attachment B form to theMiSC) Customer & Asset Registration Department E ~~~ 2nu o.emrzv.cra) to reflect this change ~nasset information.

Dear Mr. Ross:

The enclosed spreadsheet demonstrates the environmental benefit that has been achieved to dateunder the Variance in PCR 14~10. The environmental benefit is identified in terms of additional tons of502 reductions achieved under the Variance compared to the 502 tons that would have been allowedunder the MPS Rule. The benefit achieved to date reflects that the Variance imposed more stringent502 emission rates than Ihe MRS Rule uofront in the relevant period (Oct 1 2013— 12/31/2014) andprovides rebel From the MRS Rule SO? emission rates in the back end of the relevant period (1/1/2015-12/31/2019).

The environmental benefit is demonstrated using either the MRS Group’s baseline heat input or, moreconservatively, the MRS Group’s actual heat inpul Specifically:

Using the MRS Group’s baseline heat input:

• During the period October 1,2013-to Aug. 31,2016 (covering both AER and PH ownership ofthe MRS Group), the allowable SO~ emissions under the MRS Rule (without the Variance) wouldhave been 164 984 tons During that same bmeIrame the MRS Groups actual SO emissionswere 100,881 tons. As the MRS would have allowed emissions totaling 164,984 tons of 50r.that represents a reduction (benefit) oF 64103 tons (164,984 100,881).

Using the MPS Group’s actual heat input

• During the period October 1,2013-to Aug. 31,2016 (covering both AER and IPH ownership ofthe MPS Group), the alLowable 502 emIssions under the MRS without the Variance would havebeen 111738 tons. Since the MRS Group’s actualS0,emissionswere 100,881 tans during thatsame tirneframe, a benefit oF 10,857 tons of So~ reductions has occurred to date (111.738 —

100,881).

Alternatively, an environmental benefit is also demonstrated occurring over the period October 12013 to Aug. 31,2016 by comparing actual tons of SO~ emitted by the MRS Group to 502 tons underthe Variance’s allowable SO, emission rare using either the MI’S Group’s baseline heat input or actualheat input. Specifically, actual tons oFSO2 emitted by the MRS Group were less than allowed under theVariance using (I) the MRS Group Baseline heat input (113,478— 100,881 72,59? tons of benefit), or (ii)the MRS Group actual heat input (112,351 - 100,881 = 11 ~*70 tons of benefit; where 112,351 = 035lbs/mmbtu x 642,004,246 mmbtu xl ton/2,000 lbs).
