    k. Description of Project: The existing run-of-river Bass/Wilson 
Hydroelectric Project will consist of the following existing 
facilities: (1) A nine-foot-high dam at the outlet of Wilson Stream; 
(2) an existing bulkhead, waste gate, canal, and a two-foot-high, 
eight-foot-wide tailrace built prior to 1887; (3) a turbine room and 
powerhouse constructed in 1904. The applicant proposes to install: (1) 
A 78-kilowatt turbine generating unit for electrical production rated 
at 18 feet of net head with an average flow of 65 cubic feet per 
second; (2) an intake through a concrete wall on the upstream end of 
the building in the current power canal; (3) a 36-inch to 48-inch 
diameter fiberglass conduit in the existing raceway under the building; 
(4) and appurtenant facilities. The power generated will be used on-
site and all excess power will be distributed via connection to the 
interstate grid.
    When a Declaration of Intention is filed with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, the Federal Power Act requires the Commission to 
investigate and determine if the project would affect the interests of 
interstate or foreign commerce. The Commission also determines whether 
or not the project: (1) Would be located on a navigable waterway; (2) 
would occupy public lands or reservations of the United States; (3) 
would utilize surplus water or water power from a government dam; or 
(4) would be located on a non-navigable stream over which Congress has 
Commerce Clause jurisdiction and would be constructed or enlarged after 
1935.
