Section 5_4_Geological Hazards and Resources_Gem Energy Storage Center
This section provides an evaluation of the proposed Advanced Compressed Air Energy Storage (A-CAES) facility
at the Gem Energy Storage Center (GESC) in terms of potential exposure to geological hazards and potential to
affect geologic resources of commercial, recreational, or scientific value. The information presented in the
following sections is based on readily available information provided online and is limited to surficial soils only.
Construction of the proposed GESC involves the construction of various surface facilities and features (i.e.,
buildings, air processing facility, compressors, turbines, etc.), the excavation of deep vertical shafts on the order
of 2,000 feet deep below the existing ground surface, the excavation of an underground cavern, and the
construction and filling of a hydrostatic compensation surface reservoir. A site-specific geotechnical exploration
has not been performed at the proposed project location to characterize the site-specific surface and subsurface
conditions.

Section 5.16.1 contains a brief description of the work environment and setting. Section 5.16.2 describes the health and safety programs in terms of analyses conducted to identify hazards and also the safety compliance and training programs that will be established onsite. Section 5.16.3 discusses the applicable LORS. Section 5.16.4 lists the regulatory agencies involved and key agency contacts. Section 5.16.
