North Unit Irrigation District; Notice of 

Competing Preliminary Permit 

Application Accepted for Filing and 

Soliciting Comments 

January 6, 2010. 

On December 9, 2009, North Unit 

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 

North Unit Diversion Dam Hydroelectric 

Project, located 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 utilize 

the existing North Canal Diversion Dam; 

and would consist of the following new 

facilities: (1) An approximately 50-footlong, 8- to 10-foot-diameter penstock to 

accommodate flows up to 800 cubic feet 

per second; (2) a powerhouse containing 

two generating units having an installed 

capacity of 1.8 megawatts; (3) an 

approximately 500-foot-long, 21- 

kilovolt-ampere transmission line; and 

(4) appurtenant facilities. The proposed 

project would have an average annual 

generation of 7.2 gigawatt-hours.

Bed, and Harmony Mines, within the 

town of Moriah in Essex County, New 

York. The mines are owned by the 

X–Earth Corporation of Elizabethtown, 

New York, Rhodia Corporation of 

Cranbury, New Jersey, and the Town of 

Moriah, New York. 

The proposed pumped storage project 

would consist of the following: (1) An 

upper reservoir formed underground in 

Harmony Mine between the existing 

+400 and +1,000 foot elevation levels of 

the mine, with a surface area of about 

50 acres and volume of approximately 

2,400 acre-feet at normal water surface 

elevation of +1,000 feet Project Datum; 

(2) a lower reservoir formed 

underground in Harmony Mine between 

the existing ¥1,650 and ¥1,050 

elevation levels of the mine, with a 

surface area of about 50 acres and 

volume of approximately 2,400 acre-feet 

at normal water surface elevation of 

+1,050 feet Project Datum; (3) two 

identical 2,500-foot-long, 120-inchdiameter vertical bored drop shafts; (4) 

a proposed concrete powerhouse 70- 

feet-wide by 280-feet-long by 40-feethigh, containing approximately 100 

pump/turbine/generator units having a 

total installed capacity of 270 megawatts 

(MW); (5) a proposed underground, 1- 

mile-long, 115 kilovolt (kV) 

transmission line; and (6) appurtenant 

facilities. 

The development would have an 

annual generation of 650 gigawatt-hours 

(GWh), which would be sold to a local 

utility.
