a wide range of power generation technologies (e.g., GE, Siemens, mitsubishi, <strong>and</strong> Alstom)<br />
<strong>and</strong> both wet <strong>and</strong> dry cooling equipment. <strong>GenOn</strong> has successfully developed power<br />
plants on greenfield sites as well as redeveloped existing brownfield sites to host new<br />
generation assets.<br />
A recent example of <strong>GenOn</strong>’s brownfield development experience is the marsh L<strong>and</strong>ing<br />
Generating Station located just outside of San Francisco, California. This 760 megawatt<br />
peaking facility is being built near <strong>GenOn</strong>’s existing Contra Costa generating units, which<br />
are scheduled for retirement in 2013. This brownfield development project was specifically<br />
designed to maximize the use of existing site infrastructure such as natural gas pipelines<br />
<strong>and</strong> electric transmission lines, enabling the state of California to preserve greenfield sites<br />
for other development needs or as open space.<br />
marsh L<strong>and</strong>ing's output is fully contracted to California utility Pacific Gas <strong>and</strong> Electric<br />
Company (PG&E) under a long-term tolling agreement. The project benefited from a very<br />
efficient development <strong>and</strong> permitting schedule, with less than 2 1/2 years from the initial<br />
permit application to the start of construction. This highly successful project included full<br />
permitting as well as contracting for procurement of power isl<strong>and</strong> equipment <strong>and</strong> fullwrap,<br />
fixed-price EPC services. The estimated cost of the marsh L<strong>and</strong>ing project is approximately<br />
$700 million. Funding for the project consisted of a combination of <strong>GenOn</strong> equity<br />
<strong>and</strong> a bank debt facility arranged by <strong>GenOn</strong>.<br />

<strong>GenOn</strong> is pleased to submit for consideration as part of new York’s <strong>Energy</strong> <strong>Highway</strong> initiative<br />
our proposal for "Clean Gen on the Hudson" – – the <strong>Bowline</strong> 3 generation project.<br />
Upon the finalization of commercial arrangements with the State, <strong>and</strong> the construction<br />
that would follow, <strong>Bowline</strong> 3 will be a highly efficient, clean, 2 x 1 combined cycle gas<br />
turbine (CCGT) electric generating station in the town of Haverstraw, new York (Rockl<strong>and</strong><br />
County, nYISO Zone G). The capacity of this new facility will be approximately 775 mw<br />
(ISO). <strong>Bowline</strong> 3 is a brownfield development project that will be built adjacent to<br />
existing <strong>Bowline</strong> Units 1 <strong>and</strong> 2 on approximately 25 acres of previously-cleared l<strong>and</strong>.<br />
