l. Description of the Project: The

project, which does not include a dam

or reservoir, operates using relatively

small quantities of water removed from

underground springs or small creeks

located at high elevations and then

transported via buried penstocks to

three powerhouses and a powerhouse

addition having a combined installed

capacity of 2,000 kilowatts (kW). The

project produces an average of

approximately 4,653,000 kilowatt-hours

of energy per year, primarily during the

high runoff season each spring. Flows

used to generate electricity either are

diverted to the licensee’s water

distribution system for domestic and

industrial consumption or are released

into Hobble Creek.

The project also includes the

following two transmission facilities: (1)

A 5.9-mile-long line, which includes

one 1-mile-long, underground segment

and a 4.9-mile-long overhead segment,

from Upper Bartholomew powerhouse

to Hobble Creek powerhouse; and (2) a

6.9-mile-long, 12.47-kilovolt,

underground cable from Lower

Bartholomew powerhouse to Springville

City’s electric distribution system.

Although there are no developed

recreational facilities within the

boundaries of the subject project,

Springville City owns and operates a

200-unit campground and an 18-hole

golf course in the general vicinity of

Hobble Creek powerhouse. In addition,

the Rotary Club operates a park on Cityowned property. This facility includes a

ball field and a picnic area with

approximately 20 tables/grills. Further,

the Forest Service operates two small

campgrounds along the right fork

Hobble Creek.
