Appalachian Power Company; Notice 

of Application Tendered for Filing With 

the Commission and Establishing 

Procedural Schedule for Licensing and 

Deadline for Submission of Final 

Amendments 

Take notice that the following 

hydroelectric application has been filed 

with the Commission and is available 

for public inspection. 

Type of Application: New Major 

Licenses. 

Project Nos.: 1175–015 and 1290–012. 

Date Filed: January 31, 2012. 

Applicant: Appalachian Power 

Company. 

Name of Project: London/Marmet and 

Winfield Hydroelectric Projects. 

Location: The existing projects are 

located on the Kanawha River. The 

London/Marmet Project is located in 

Fayette and Kanawha Counties, West 

Virginia, and the Winfield Project is 

located in Kanawha and Putnam 

Counties, West Virginia. The London/ 

Marmet and Winfield Projects would 

occupy 11.71 and 8.25 acres, 

respectively, of federal land managed by 

the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers. 

Filed Pursuant to: Federal Power Act, 

16 U.S.C. 791 (a)–825(r). 

Applicant Contact: Harold G. Slone, 

Manager, Appalachian Power Company, 

40 Franklin Road, Roanoke, VA 24011; 

Telephone (540) 985–2861. 

FERC Contact: Brandi Sangunett, 

(202) 502–8393 or 

brandi.sangunett@ferc.gov. 

This application is not ready for 

environmental analysis at this time. 

The existing project works consists of 

the following: 

The London/Marmet Project consists 

of two developments. The existing 

London Development utilizes the head 

created by the Army Corps of Engineers’ 

(Corps) 26-foot-high London Dam 

located at river mile (RM) 82.8 on the 

Kanawha River and consists of: (1) A 

forebay area protected by a log boom; (2) 

screened intake structures; (3) a 

concrete powerhouse containing three 

turbine-generator units with a total 

installed capacity of 14.4 megawatts 

(MW); (4) a tailrace 420 feet long; (5) a 

substation containing two, three-phase 

transformers and two auxiliary 

transformers; (6) two, 0.38-mile-long, 

46-kilovolt (kV) transmission lines; and 

(7) other appurtenances. The 

development generates about 84,048 

megawatt-hours (MWh) annually. 

The existing Marmet Development 

utilizes the head created by the Corps’ 

34-foot-high Marmet Dam located at RM 

67.7 on the Kanawha River and consists 

of: (1) A forebay area protected by a log 

boom; (2) screened intake structures; (3) 

a concrete powerhouse containing three 

turbine-generator units with a total 

installed capacity of 14.4 MW; (4) a 

tailrace 450 feet long; (5) a substation 

containing two, three-phase 

transformers and two auxiliary 

transformers; (6) two, 0.78-mile-long, 

46-kV transmission lines; and (7) other 

appurtenances. The development 

generates about 82,302 MWh annually. 

The London/Marmet Project has a 

total installed capacity of 28.8 MW and 

generates about 166,350 MWh annually. 

The existing Winfield Project utilizes 

the head created by the Corps’ 38-foothigh Winfield Dam located at RM 31.1 

on the Kanawha River and consists of: 

(1) A forebay area protected by a 410- 

foot-long log boom; (2) screened intake 

structures; (3) a concrete powerhouse 

containing three turbine-generator units 

with a total installed capacity of 14.76 

MW; (4) a tailrace 410 feet long; (5) a 

substation containing a generator stepup bank of three transformers and three 

auxiliary transformers; (6) a 3.7-milelong, 69-kV transmission line; and (7) 

other appurtenances. The project 

generates about 114,090 MWh annually. 

The above hydroelectric facilities’ 

operation is synchronized with the 

operation of the Corps’ locks at each 

dam. The developments at each of the 

two projects operate within allowable 

pool elevation limits as established by 

the Corps. The London pool elevation is 

allowed to fluctuate between 611.0 feet 

and 614.0 feet National Geodetic 

Vertical Datum 1929 (NGVD). The 

Marmet pool elevation is allowed to 

fluctuate between 589.7 feet and 590.0 

feet NGVD. The Winfield pool elevation 

is allowed to fluctuate between 565.8 

feet and 566.0 feet NGVD. All three 

pools can be drawn down at a maximum 

rate of 0.5 feet per hour. When stream 

flow exceeds the maximum turbine 

discharge, the responsibility for control 

of the pool elevations passes to the 

Corps’ personnel and the projects 

operate in run-of-release mode. 

Appalachian is proposing to modify 

the maximum pool elevation limit at the 

London Development from 614.0 feet to 

613.7 feet NGVD.
