1 ANNUAL INSPECTION REPORT1.1 IntroductionAMTECH Associates L.L.C. (AMTECH) has prepared this 2015 Annual InspectionReport for Ash Landfill area associated with the Tucson Electric Power’s SpringervilleGenerating Station (SGS) approximately 15 miles north of Springerville, Arizona (SeeFigure 1). This report was prepared to comply with annual inspection requirements as perthe U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Standards for the Disposal of CoalCombustion Residuals (CCR) in Landfill and Surface Impoundments, CFR Part 257Subpart D. These standards are applicable to the facility’s Ash Landfill as an “ExistingCCR landfill” as defined in CFR §257.53 and receives CCR.Additionally, in accordance with §257.105(g)(9), this report will be placed in the SGS’sfacility operating record and, in accordance with the requirement stipulated in§257.106(g)(7), noticed to the State Director and posted to the publicly accessible internetsite.1.1.1Regulatory RequirementsAs per CFR Part §257.84(b)(1), existing CCR landfill must be inspected on a periodicbasis by a Qualified Professional Engineer to ensure that the design, construction,operation, and maintenance of the CCR unit is consistent with recognized and generallyaccepted good engineering standards.1.1.2Site Description and LocationThe SGS is a four-unit, pulverized coal-fired, steam electric generating facility, operatedby Tucson Electric Power Company (TEP), that began operations in 1985 and consists of acombined net generating output of approximately 1600-megawatts.SGS is located approximately 15 miles northeast of Springerville, in Apache County,Arizona. The power plant area of SGS is located in Sections 27, 28, 33, and 34, ofTownship 11 North, Range 30 East of the Salt and Gila River Baseline and Meridian. TheSGS site occupies 14,355 acres, which includes the power plant area, ash landfill area andthe east and west well fields.The Ash Landfill, located southwest of the power plant area, is primarily used for thedisposal of fly and bottom ash, products of the coal-fired units at the plant.

"Landfill Footprint" means the area of the landfill site where MSW is approved to be deposited. "Landfill Gas" (LFG) means a mixture of gases generated by the decomposition of MSW, as defined in the Landfill Gas Management Regulation. “Landfill Phase” means the portion of the landfill footprint that has received or is

identified, whereas in 1300OC ash CaO and MgO were the main compounds. The implications for ash deposition in furnaces is discussed. Keywords- Ash, Wood, Furnaces. 1. INTRODUCTION Wood fuel for generating heat and power is of interest because wood is a renewable fuel with low ash and sulfur content. However, as with coal, the problems of ash .
