(2) three proposed powerhouses, each to contain a 0.37-megawatt-(MW) 
turbine-generating unit, with a total capacity of 1.11 MW, and (3) a 
new three-phase transmission line (voltage to be determined) to connect 
with the nearest tie-in point of a local power company grid system. The 
project would produce an estimated average annual generation of about 
8,000 megawatt-hours.
