Salem Power Plant Feasibility Study




Public Meeting Notice


The City of Salem will hold a public meeting on Thursday, June 30, 2011 at 6:30 PM at the Bentley Elementary School, 25 Memorial Drive regarding the feasibility study for the reuse of Dominion Energy’s Salem Harbor Power Station site that is currently underway. At this meeting the City will provide an update on the progress of the feasibility study and solicit input from the public.

The purpose of this study is to understand the site context, review current economic trends and power demands in the region, and explore potential scenarios and alternative land use concepts for reuse, including associated costs, benefits, and issues.

The City has retained the services of Jacobs Engineering Group, in conjunction with Sasaki Associates, LaCapra Energy Consultants, and Robert Charles Lesser & Co. to help facilitate this study. The study is being paid for with a grant the City obtained from the Massachusetts Clean Energy Technology Center.
