SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION Background: The City of Cleveland Department of Public Service operates the Division of Waste Collection and Disposal (DWC). This Division provides weekly collection of waste from 155,000 Cleveland homes, the West Side Market, Fire and Police Stations, the Justice Center, City Hall and other City Buildings and public areas. The Division of Waste Collection operates a municipal solid waste transfer station at 3727 Ridge Road, Cleveland, Ohio 44144. Municipal solid waste is brought to the transfer station via waste collection vehicles. The waste is gathered and loaded into transport trucks to be taken to landfills.

The City’s Department of Public Utilities operates the Division of Cleveland Public Power (“CPP”) for the purpose of supplying electric energy to customers located primarily in the City of Cleveland. In order to meet the goals of reducing Cleveland’s dependency on electric power purchase and the electric transmission grid, CPP seeks to assess the feasibility of a Municipal Solid Waste (“MSW”) Facility (the “Facility”) converting city waste to electrical power (‘MSWE) plant with-in the city boundary. Proposed Facility: The proposed MSWE Facility will utilize advanced and proven technologies including and not limited to gasification, steam compression obtained through Princeton Environmental Group (“PEG”), Inc., and Kinsei Sangyo Company. The Facility would process MSW, from both the City of Cleveland as well as the surrounding communities, to generate electrical energy as well as a number of additional marketable by-products such as recyclables, refuse derived fuel (RDF”) pellets, steam and decorative bricks. The Facility would process the MSW and recyclables in a Seven (7) step process identified as: (1) Collection; (2) MSW Handling and Processing; (3) Recycling; (4) Sorting and Shredding; (5) Steam Compression; (6) Gasification and (7) Electric Generation. This would enable the City of Cleveland to produce electric power locally, utilize MSW as a fuel source and also assist CPP in meeting anticipated state and local Advanced Energy Portfolio Standards (AEPS). Facility Location: The facility will be located at the City’s Ridge Road Transfer Station, at 3727 Ridge Road, Cleveland, OH, 44114. The Transfer Station operates on 10.6 acres of industrial land and municipal waste throughout the City of Cleveland is collected here then transferred on to landfills. In addition to the operational area, the City of Cleveland owns adjacent property to the west (occupied by the City of Cleveland Service Department) and to the south. The total acreage of City-owned property, including the Ridge Road Transfer Station but not the adjacent police shooting range, is approximately 20 acres. If the MSWE facility requires more space, the possibility of acquisition of surrounding land should be evaluated.

SECTION 4 STATEMENT OF QUALIFICATIONS Princeton Environmental Group, Inc. Princeton Environmental Group, Inc. is a full service environmental service company providing innovative, comprehensive waste-to-energy solutions. Princeton Environmental is the exclusive North American licensee of the GB Gasification Technology invented by Kinsei Sangyo Co. of Japan, a leading biomass/solid waste gasification engineering company with 69 patents worldwide including 5 in the U.S., over 300 waste processing gasification systems in operation and 40+ year records of success. Gasification is a flexible, reliable and environmentally friendly engineering that can turn a variety of low value feedstocks into high value energy/fuel products. The Princeton Gasification units convert waste into energy by processing solid and liquid waste at high temperature with minimal oxygen and creating ‘syngas.” Syngas is then utilized as the primary fuel required by system operation and producing heat, electricity, steam and other bio fuels. Princeton’s technology converts waste with higher than 95% efficiency; the remaining ash remnants are collected which can be sold as road paving or construction materials. Due to high fuel self-reliance, the operating costs of Kinsei equipment is far below comparable systems. Princeton Environmental provides larger waste systems for municipalities and smaller units for hospitals and manufacturing wastes. Princeton gasification systems are capable of processing a wide spectrum of waste including regulated and hazardous wastes such as hospital red bag waste, x-ray films, toxic chemicals and are capable of converting them to valuable energies for their hosting facilities. This technology has been validated by over 35 years of operation in Japanese municipalities, hospitals, laboratories, chemical and pharmaceutical companies. After 5 years of research and developments, Princeton has accumulated a group of advanced engineering and technology companies as a team providing comprehensive services and solutions to municipalities and large waste generators and capable of servicing them with turn-key solutions. Management Team: Mr. Peter Tien President Peter Tien is the founder and the President of Princeton Environmental Group, a professional company that provides total waste-to-energy solutions using the world leading gasification technology of Kinsei Sangyo, Company LTD. Japan.

Mr. Tien’s experience encompasses many facets of the industrial world including marketing and sales, administration and operations, manufacturing and engineering. He has held management positions with major US companies responsible for product research and development, market strategic planning, manufacturing and quality control. In the 80’s and 90’s, he successfully served and worked with companies such as IBM, Seagate, Osicom and Brother USA. Among all the companies that he served, Mr. Tien has been credited as an industrial visionary and a foremost forward thinking designer. Starting in the mid 90’s, he founded and cofounded a number of companies including General Technologies and National Logistics and sold them for a profit after successfully running them for 4 to 6 years. Some of his product designs from these endeavors are still generating continuous royalty income for him. Mr. Tien holds a Bachelor of Science degree from National Taiwan University, Taiwan and received advanced training in Industrial Design from Pratt Institute, New York. After 5 years of diligent efforts, Mr. Tien has successfully promoted Kinsei technology to major industrial groups and to municipalities throughout the United States. During this time, he has conducted extensive marketing research, met with potential clients and evaluated a number of potential applications for the Kinsei technology. Mr. Masamoto Kaneko Inventor, Chief Science Officer Mr. Masamoto Kaneko, founding owner of Kinsei Sangyo Company LTD, graduated from Gunma Prefecture University with a bachelor degree and established Kinsei in the city of Takasaki, Japan. Mr. Kaneko was invited to be part of the research team formed by the Japanese Government to identify effective waste elimination engineering. After 11 years of dedicated research, he adopted the principle of gasification and invented his proprietary process technology and named it the GB Solid Waste Dry Distillation Process. Kinsei commissioned the world’s first solid waste gasification system in 1978 and has designed more than 500 systems during the last 30 years. Today, Kinsei has been awarded 69 patents in 19 countries and has more than 300 systems in operation throughout Asia processing multiple waste groups including manufacturing and hazardous wastes. When Mr. Kaneko started his quest 50 years ago, his primary missions were (1) to eliminate waste effectively and efficiently, (2) recover waste energies to minimize fossil dependency. These were his missions back then and they are even more true today. 60% of Kinsei equipments are enhanced with energy recovery capacities. Masamoto Kaneko’s U.S. Patent List Patent
