DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Project No. 15319–000] 

Jupiter Pumped Storage 1, LLC; Notice 

of Preliminary Permit Application 

Accepted for Filing and Soliciting 

Comments, Motions To Intervene, and 

Competing Applications 

On July 12, 2023, Jupiter Pumped 

Storage 1, LLC, filed an application for 

a preliminary permit, pursuant to 

section 4(f) of the Federal Power Act 

(FPA), proposing to study the feasibility 

of the Mineral Run Pumped Storage 

Project (Mineral Run Project or project) 

to be located in Cambria County, 

Pennsylvania. 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 Mineral Run Project 

would consist of the following: (1) a 

new 9,400-foot-long, 85-foot-high rockfilled embankment dike forming an 

upper reservoir having a surface area of 

120 acres and a total storage capacity of 

approximately 9,840 acre-feet at a 

normal maximum water surface 

elevation of 2,282 feet above mean sea 

level (msl); (2) a new 15,200-foot-long, 

85-foot-high rock-filled embankment 

dike forming a lower reservoir having a 

total storage capacity of approximately 

9,840 acre-feet at a normal maximum 

water surface elevation of 2,062 feet 

msl; (3) a 32-foot-diameter, 100-footlong vertical tunnel and a 32-footdiameter, 4,500-foot-long horizontal 

tunnel and/or penstock connecting the 

upper and lower reservoirs; (4) a 120- 

foot-wide, 600-foot-long powerhouse 

containing six reversible turbinegenerator units with a total rated 

capacity of 208 megawatts; (5) a new 

pump station along the eastern bank of 

Saltlick Run to convey water through a 

1,300-foot-long, 2-foot-diameter steel 

conduit to the lower reservoir; (6) a 1.7- 

mile-long, 230-kilovolt transmission 

line connecting the project to an 

existing substation; and (7) appurtenant 

facilities. Initial fill and make-up water 

for the project would come from Saltlick 

Run. The proposed project would have 

an annual generation of 607,000 

megawatt-hours.
