                    *Project Description:*
                     The existing project consists of: (1) A 17-foot-high by 65-foot-wide diversion dam; (2) a 30-inch-diameter, 11,450-foot-long black steel penstock; (3) a 34-foot-long by 41-foot-wide stone powerhouse containing an impulse turbine and one generating unit with an installed capacity of 625 kilowatts; (4) a 4-foot-wide by 150-foot-long tailrace channel; (5) a 12.5-kilovolt, approximately 21,000-foot-long transmission line; and (6) appurtenant facilities. The estimated average annual generation (2012 to 2017) is 4,446 megawatt-hours. Beaver City Corporation proposes to abandon the existing: (1) Powerhouse; (2) portion of penstock between the existing powerhouse and proposed new powerhouse; (3) buried line from the turbine generator to the transformer on the west side of the existing powerhouse; (4) old transformer; (5) overhead line from the old transformer to the start of the transmission line on the west bank of the Beaver River; and (6) tailrace. As such, Beaver City Corporation proposes to remove approximately 50-feet of the existing penstock and construct: (1) A new 40-foot-long by 27-foot-wide metal-walled powerhouse to contain one new turbine-generator with an installed capacity of 720 kilowatts; (2) a new buried line of unknown dimensions from the new turbine-generator to the new transformer; (3) a new buried line of unknown dimensions from the new transformer to an intermediate pole; (4) a new overhead line of unknown dimensions from the intermediate pole to the start of the existing transmission line; and (5) a new approximately 50-foot-long by approximately 10-foot-wide rock-lined tailrace. The new powerhouse, power distribution facilities, and tailrace would be constructed approximately 50 feet upstream of the existing powerhouse, and the existing powerhouse would be retained within the project boundary as an historic structure. m.
