Muskingum Valley Hydro; Notice of 

Preliminary Permit Application 

Accepted for Filing and Soliciting 

Comments, Motions To Intervene, and 

Competing Applications 

September 1, 2009. 

On July 6, 2009, Muskingum Valley 

Hydro filed an application for a 

preliminary permit, pursuant to section 

4(f) of the Federal Power Act, proposing 

to study the feasibility of the 

Muskingum Valley Hoover Dam 

Hydroelectric Project No. 13535, to be 

located at the existing Hoover Dam, on 

the Big Walnut River, in Franklin 

County, Ohio. 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 existing Hoover Dam is owned 

and operated by the Ohio Department of 

Natural Resources and includes the 

existing reservoir, dam, outlet works, 

and tailrace. The proposed project 

would consist of: (1) The existing 85.5- 

foot-high earth fill concrete gravity 

Hoover Dam equipped with a 680-footlong ogee spillway; (2) an existing 

3,272-acre impoundment with a normal 

water surface elevation 890 feet mean 

sea level; (3) a new 30-foot-long by 30- 

foot-wide powerhouse containing two 

turbine generator units for a total 

installed capacity of 3.5 megawatts; (4) 

a new 600-foot-long, 14.7-kilovolt 

transmission line; and (5) appurtenant 

facilities. The proposed project would 

operate in run-of-river mode and 

generate an estimated average annual 

generation of 30,600,000 kilowatt-hours.
