Commission 

[Project No. 14851–000] 

White Pine Waterpower, LLC; Notice of 

Preliminary Permit Application 

Accepted for Filing and Soliciting 

Comments, Motions To Intervene, and 

Competing Applications 

On July 13, 2017, White Pine 

Waterpower, LLC, filed an application 

for a preliminary permit, pursuant to 

section 4(f) of the Federal Power Act 

(FPA), proposing to study the feasibility 

of the White Pine Pumped Storage 

Project to be located near the town of 

Ely in White Pine, Nevada. The sole 

purpose of a preliminary permit, if 

issued, is to grant the permit holder 

priority to file a license application 

during the permit term. A preliminary 

permit does not authorize the permit 

holder to perform any land-disturbing 

activities or otherwise enter upon lands 

or waters owned by others without the 

owners’ express permission. 

The applicant proposes to study two 

alternative closed-loop pumped storage 

alternatives at the site: One sized to 250 

megawatts (MW) and the other to 500 

MW. The 500-MW alternative would 

consist of the following: (1) A new 

upper reservoir with a surface area of 52 

acres and a storage capacity of 2,400 

acre-feet at a surface elevation of 

approximately 8,530 feet above mean 

sea level (msl) created through 

construction of a new earth or rockfilled dam; (2) a new lower reservoir 

with a surface area of 40 acres and a 

total storage capacity of 2,400 acre-feet 

at a surface elevation of 6,290 feet msl; 

(3) 10,600 feet of tunnel and penstock 

connecting the upper and lower 

reservoirs; (5) a new underground 

powerhouse containing three turbinegenerator units; (6) a new 1.5 mile 

transmission line connecting the 

powerhouse to a nearby electric grid 

interconnection, (7) appurtenant 

facilities. The 500-MW alternative 

would have an annual generation of 

502,717 megawatt-hours (MWh). 

For the 250-MW alternative, the new 

upper and lower reservoirs would be 

sized to have half of the storage of the 

500-MW alternative (1,200 acre-feet), 

reducing the dam size needed to 

impound the reservoirs. The alternative 

would require 11,700 feet of tunnel and 

penstock and have 2 pump-generating 

units. The 250-MW alternative would 

require the same transmission line and 

would have an estimated annual 

generation of 547,500 MWh.
