Energy Resources USA, Inc.; Notice of
Preliminary Permit Application
Accepted for Filing and Soliciting
Comments and Motions To Intervene
On December 22, 2015, Energy
Resources USA, Inc. (Energy Resources)
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 Nolin Lake
Dam Hydroelectric Project (Nolin
Project or project) to be located at the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ Nolin
Lake Dam on the Nolin River in
Edmonson County, Kentucky. 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 proposed project would consist of
the following: (1) A control structure
with three 9.5-foot-wide, 25-foot-long
spill gates; (2) one 10-foot-diameter, 65foot-long penstock with a butterfly
valve; (3) a bifurcation structure; (4) two
6.5-foot-diameter, 32-foot-long
penstocks; (5) a powerhouse containing
two generating units with a total
capacity of 7 megawatts; (6) a 1000-footlong, 220-foot-wide tailrace; (7) a
substation; and (8) a 3-mile-long, 69 kV
transmission line. The proposed project
would have an estimated average annual
generation of 26,900 megawatt-hours,
and operate as directed by the Corps.
