LONGVIEW Northwest Innovation Works has requested another extension to its Southwest Clean Air Agency discharge permit, as construction on the 90-acre methanol plant has not yet started.
Northwest Innovation Works Kalama asked for an 18-month extension to its Air Discharge Permit, ADP 16-3204 on Feb. 23. The permit was issued June 7, 2017 and originally expired Dec. 7, 2018.
SWCAA extended the expiration date to March 4, 2021, and now is proposing moving the expiration date to Sept. 4, 2022.
“NWIW’s intention is to promptly commence construction of the facility as soon as necessary permits and approvals are obtained,” the notice of extension said.
