Question: V. Rylenko. How does the project address social development of the power plant settlement and the district in general? Answer: L. Yudovsky. It is planned to build living quarters for 5000 people complete with infrastructure. The temporary settlement will include a kindergarten for 330 children. An 18-classroom school is all but completed. The Directorate has made significant investment into road system development in Mostovskoy, construction of new shops, and development of consumer services. A water duct and a water treatment plant will be built in Mostovskoy. Question: E. Maleshko. Are there any contingencies made in the project for possible damages payments for environmental disaster accidents? Answer: [fax garbled]. There is a complex of measures to liquidate accidents and to compensate damages. Question: Mr Dukhanov. Will the plant use black oil (mazut) at all? Will there be particulates emissions? If so, what areas may be affected most? Answer: 0. Eschenko. Mazut will be used only as a backup fuel for the startup boiler house. The boiler house will be used for starting and running up the main plant equipment. Therefore, there will be no environmental pollution caused by particulates. * Question: N. Semenko. Will the Krasnodar GRES Project cause a general raise of ground waters in the Mostovskoy District? Answer: 0. Eschenko. Ground water table may go 0.5 meter up on the site. The project makes allowances for that. The impact area will extend 150 to 300 meters around the plant. PAGE 1 1-26 e

@ 11.3.4 Newspaper Coverage of Public Hearing Tr. : What follows is the translation of an article published in Kubanskeye Zory [The Kuban Dawns], a regional weekly,, Issue #2 /767), 73th January 7996, ELECTRIC LIGHT AND.. . . CLEAR AIR KRASNODAR GRES POWER PLANT: TO BE OR NOT TO BE? The public hearings on the Environmental Impact Assessment of the Krasnodar GRES Power Plant Project became the most significant event that took place in the district on the home-run to New Year celebrations. It was a competent gathering: local residents, public representatives, administration managers met in discussion with Mr Oleg Eschenko of the Kuban State Agrarian University, Mr Gennady Chegasov, a Burns & Roe representative and a former expert for the Ministry of Environment, Ms N. Shmelser of the Krasnodar Krai Environmental Committee, Mr Sergei Evstratovsky of Kubanenergo, and representatives of the Krasnodar Power Plant Directorate. The problem of electricity supply in Kuban, a region where electricity prices are at their highest in Russia, has a long history and worsens virtually by the year. Not surprisingly, the ever recurring debates around the construction of a power plant in Mostovskoy never fail to attract a great deal of interest on the part of the region's denizens. Even more so because the time has come for the words to have some action to fall back on, viz. some financial guarantees. According Mr V. Rylenko, Head of the Mostovskoy District Administration, the World Bank will provide an investment loan in the amount of $500 million to finance the Krasnodar GRES Project. If this funding becomes available any time soon, there will be a chance to make good on a promise made a year ago when the construction site was initiated. Remember? "[To commission] Russia's first combined cycle unit in Kuban by 1997!" The public representatives had all kinds of questions to ask. For instance, the locals were interested to know whether there were any other similar plants in Russia. Where would the balance of financing come from, to foot the hefty construction bill, for $500 million pays about half the price? The first question was answered unequivocally - no, there are no similar plants anywhere in Russia. But there are some in Turkey, Italy, Japan, France, USA, etc. Russian investors include, but are not limited to, Gasprom and the Energy Machine Building Corporation. The Krai's and the district administration's contributions are yet to be finalized. Any profits derived from the project will be shared in proportion to contributions made by project members.
