Description<br />
Flaring occurs during<br />
emergencies <strong>and</strong><br />
blowdowns.<br />
No new power<br />
generation equipment<br />
will be installed <strong>and</strong> it is<br />
not anticipated that<br />
there will be no increase<br />
in fuel gas usage.<br />
Potential effects <strong>and</strong> significance of potential<br />
impacts<br />
Flaring may contribute to climate change (CH4,<br />
CO2), acidification effects (SOx, NOx) <strong>and</strong> potential<br />
localised smog formation (VOC, NOx <strong>and</strong><br />
particulates).<br />
