He said during cold-start conditions of the plant nitric oxide is produced and converted to NO2 when mixed with oxygen. "NO2 has a yellowish colour until it has the opportunity to mix with the atmosphere, " said Cunha. Kate Jordan, spokesperson for the MOE, said they have investigated the complaints. "We don't have any concerns regarding environmental impact as a result of the plume," said Jordan. "It's a normal result of start-up operation," said Jordan. "It is the byproducts of the combustion process required for them to get to that operating temperature," said Jordan. She said the plant operates under a · · 5 Independent & Free Press, Thursday, March 24, 2011 MOE Certificate of Approval, and has to meet the conditions for nitrogen oxides. She said the company is not exceeding its Certificate of Approval. The plant is "not exceeding any air standard that would cause any adverse effects to nearby residents or the community environment," said Jordan.

She said, however, too many nitrogen oxides can lead to acid rain, and smog, but she said the federal government regulates those types of emissions. Murphy's confident the MOE is regulating the emissions from the Hornby plant. "I think people shouldn't be alarmed in the context," said Murphy. OFFER ENDS THURS.!
