The plant will be located on
a 5.000 acre^tract of land about
S miles northeast of Fairfield.

Included In the construction
plans is a dam which will form
a 2.500 acre lake, for cooling
water purposes, containing
some 15 billion gallons of water
when filled. Construction of the
new facility will begin in late
1968. The dam is expected to
be completed in 1969 and one
of the generating units will be
placed in service in late 1971.
The second generating unit is
scheduled for completion in late
1972.
The new plant will utilize the
area’s lignite deposits for fuel
to firp the boilers As a result,
Austin said, lignite mining op-
erations in the area will be
started in late 1970. about one
year, prior to the completion of
the first generating unit. He
said that by early 1973 some
100 to 150 persons will be em-
ployed fulltime at the new
power plant and mining opera
tion. In addition. Austin e-stim
ated that about 450 workers
win be employed at the peak of
the plant s construction.
