licensee is proposing a non-capacity 

amendment to replace the existing 

penstock and powerhouse with new

Instead of repairing the penstock and 

existing powerhouse as authorized 

under the license, the licensee proposes 

to rebuild the powerhouse at the West 

Charleston Dam, thus eliminating the 

need for about 1600 feet of penstock. 

The proposed changes will reduce the 

authorized installed capacity of the 

Clyde River Project from 4.8 MW to 4.7 

MW. The licensee’s proposal has been 

reviewed and commented by the 

following agencies: Vermont Agency of 

Natural Resources (VANR), the U.S.

Vermont Historic Preservation Officer. 

In addition, the licensee requested an 

amendment of its Water Quality 

Certification from the VANR.
