          -  [Project No. 13858-000]

On October 6, 2010, Central Oregon Irrigation District filed an application for a preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the Federal Power Act, proposing to study the feasibility of the Cline Falls Hydroelectric Project located at the Cline Falls diversion dam on the Deschutes River in Deschutes County, Oregon. The sole purpose of a preliminary permit, if issued, is to grant the permit holder priority to file a license application during the permit term. A preliminary permit does not authorize the permit holder to perform any land disturbing activities or otherwise enter upon lands or waters owned by others without the owners' express permission.

The proposed project would consist of the following existing and proposed facilities: (1) The existing 300-foot-long, 5-foot-high diversion structure; (2) a pool upstream of the diversion structure with a storage capacity of approximately 2-acre-feet; (3) a wooded radial gate for diversion control; (4) a 400-foot-long lined canal and flume channel; (5) a 45-foot-long, 8-foot-diameter steel penstock; (6) a powerhouse containing one 750-kW turbine/generator; (7) a tailrace leading from the rock chamber located under the turbine and a short tailrace to the river; (8) and appurtenant facilities. The proposed project would have an average annual generation of 2 gigawatt-hours.
