Status Of The Great Plains Coal

Gasification Project--August 1982




C nstruction of the Great Plains coal
g sification plant in Mercer County, Northf
D kota, is 4 to 6 weeks behind schedule,
b jt no long-term impacts are anticipated.
C imulative project costs are lower than
oiginally estimated. Overall, the manage-
ment system established to oversee project
construction appears comprehensive. How-
e ear, some weaknesses exist in the com-
pterized information system, which
p oduces most project data.

Tie Department of Energy complied with
s atutory requirements in awarding the
Great Plains loan guarantee for an alterna-
ti s fuel demonstration project and is actively
working to fulfill its responsibilities as the
ptoject's overseer. However, the Depart-
ment needs to audit the costs incurred by
eat Plains to determine that funds are
b ing used only for eligible projects costs.
