Joaquin and BioConversion. Northern States Power Company, an electric 
utility, will have an ownership interest in the facility. The 
Chowchilla I facility will now be modified to include the char 
production facility owned by BioConversion, and the power generation 
facility owned by San Joaquin. The maximum net electric power 
production capacity of the facility will be 9.9 MW. The Applicants 
request recertification as a small power production facility to reflect
