TAC : TRANSALTA CORP (NYSE) TransAlta Awards Contract for Scrubber Additions HOUSTON, Aug 22, 2001 TransAlta Corporation awarded a engineering & construction contract for a $200 million project to install two Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) units on two 730 mega-watt (MW) coal-fired units. Civil construction began in 2000. Unit No. 2 had its tie-in outage 2Q01 & unit No. 1 is scheduled for its tie-in outage April to June 2002. These two FGD units will insure that the plant meets SO2 & opacity regulations mandated by the state of Washington & the Environmental Protection Agency's Clean Air Act. "The addition of FGD's and other emission reduction equipment will become an expenditure that most coal-fired power producers will have to deal with as tougher emission standards come into play," states John Deming, power group industry specialist with Industrialinfo.com. TransAlta Corporation is a generation, transmission & distribution Investor Owned Utility (IOU) that has over $7 billion in assets and 8,000MW of generating capacity. TransAlta's growth is focused on developing coal and gas-fired generation in Canada, the United States & Mexico.
