Application Continued
For 0ccoquan Creek
HydroeIectric Plant
Company Cites Need
For Chonee in Charter
To Permit Project
BY the Associated Press.

RICHMOND, Va, April 24.-At the
request Of the applicant. the State
Corporation Commissioner contin-.
ued yesterday an application of the
Occoquan Co. for authority to con-
struct q $5.5o6,o00 hydro-electric
pumping plant on Occoquan
Greek, Il miles south of Alexandria.
- w. e. Gallagher of Washington,
attorney for the company, said the
continuance was requested because
of a charter provision prohibiting
the exercise Of the right of eminent
domain and that it appeared a
new charter might have to be
Fought before the project could be
ulidertakeH.
George Knutson, vice president Of
the company, said after the brief
1lrancs before the commission
"a Whatever steps were necessary
would b taksn to permit the projA
ect to 60 ahead.
Second Plant Of Kind in u. S.
The plant, he said, would be the
second Of this type In the United
States although a number of the
same general type are in operation
In Germany. The other one In
this country is at Rocky Ford, Conn.
The theory Of the pumping plant,
he explained, is that during periods
of slack power demand. power would
be purchased from some other COM
pany. probably the Virginia Public
Service, to pump water from the
stream to q 125- -foot-deep reservoir.
The water power thus made avail
able would be used to augment the
supply of power needed at the peak
periods OF the day.
He said the proposed plant would
have q capacity Of 107, 900 900 kilo-
watt hours per year of which about
"a, 600 900 could be generated from
the stream now without pumping.
2,6ee-Acre Reservoir.
The plans call for . 125 foot dam
which would provide q reservoir
covering some $500 acres in Prince
William and Fairfax Counties. The
dam would be about / 600 feet above
the Route 123 Bridge at Occoquan.
The company had estimates to
indicate that additional power would
be needed in connection with the
war program and the general plan
is to sell the Occoquan Co.'S product
to other companies, such as the
Virginia Public Service and Vir-
ginia Electric & Power. II was
estimated that the project could be
completed within approximately
one year.
