FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) August 3, 2010 -- Interview with: Jeffrey Stokes, Plant Manager, Bergen Generating Station PSEG


Richmond, VA, August 3, 2010 - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

It is all about being ahead of legislation, according to Jeffrey Stokes, Plant Manager, Bergen Generating Station PSEG. Power plant management should be tuned-in to all the regulatory policies, environmental regulations and legislation coming into place. They need to understand what is going on at all levels, and make sure they are one step ahead when planning for the future. Ahead of the marcus evans Power Plant Management Summit 2010 taking place in Richmond, Virginia, September 27-29, Stokes talks about the upcoming industry changes, and more importantly, how power plant managers can ensure they stay ahead of the game.

What strategies to ensure environmental regulation compliance would you recommend?

Jeffrey Stokes: Plant managers should have someone tuned-in as the head of regulatory policy in their organization in order to not be on the downside of regulation when new laws emerge. Power generators should want to be ahead of where they think legislation is going, to be able to plan for the future.

Many of the changes the industry is facing involve carbon monoxide, carbon and mercury issues. These must be tackled early on, so that the organization is not caught with the rest of the group as they slowly make the necessary changes on the environmental front. Plant managers should have a great environmental lobbyist working for them. If they lack the resources, they can contract outside of the organization. It is all about being ahead of legislation.
