l. The existing Mill Creek 2/3 Hydroelectric Project consists of two independent water conveyance and generation systems on Mill Creek. The Mill 3 development is located upstream of the Mill 2 development and they share a common powerhouse. Mill 3 consists of: (1) A 7-foot-high, 80-foot-long rubble concrete diversion dam with a crest elevation of 4,982 feet; (2) an intake structure with a steel debris grid and a fish wheel (3) a 5.4-mile-long flowline; (4) a concrete sand box; (5) a 8,120-foot-long steel penstock; (6) the portion of the Mill 2/3 powerhouse that houses the four Mill 3 generating units with an installed capacity of 3,000 kW; (7) a 265-foot-long, 12-kV transmission line; and (8) other appurtenant structures. SCE proposes to continue to operate the Mill 3 development as it has historically operated.

The existing Mill 2 consists of: (1) The Mountain Home Creek diversion dam, a 3-foot-high, 42-foot-long, rubble concrete weir with a crest elevation of 3,626 feet; (2) the Mill 2 River Pick-up, a 2-foot-high, 34-foot-long, rubble concrete structure with a crest elevation of 3,593 feet; (3) a concrete intake structure with trashracks, drum-type fish screen, leaf rake and overflow pipe; (4) a 2.9-mile-long flowline system; (5) a concrete-lined sandbox, (6) a 600-cfs concrete-lined forebay; (7) an 18-inch-diameter, 1,411-foot-long steel penstock; (8) the portion of the Mill 2/3 powerhouse that houses the single 250-kW Mill 2 generating unit; and (9) other appurtenant structures. Because of damage resulting from an earthquake in July of 1992, the Mill 2 flowline has not been used since that time. SCE proposes to remove the Mill 2 flowline, diversions and generating equipment from the project.
