Company (Land and Water Company)
have filed applications, pursuant to
section 4(f) of the Federal Power Act,
proposing to study the feasibility of
projects on the North and South Head
Races of the Illinois River in La Salle

Project for surplus power production at
the North Head Race. The proposed
project would utilize the existing U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers’ Marseilles
Lock and Dam, and install additional
incremental capacity to a previously
existing licensed project, Project No.
12020. The proposed project would
consist of: (1) The existing 2,730-footlong, 80 to 200-foot-wide North Head
Race; (2) an existing powerhouse
containing four new generating units
having a total installed capacity of 5
megawatts; (3) a proposed 400-foot-long,
34-kilovolt transmission line; and (4)
appurtenant facilities. The City’s
proposed Marseilles Hydroelectric
Project for surplus power production at
the North Head Race would have an
average annual generation of 22.03
gigawatt-hours.
On May 20, 2008, the City filed a
second application, Project No. 13230,
for the proposed Marseilles
Hydroelectric Project for power
production at the North Head Race. The
proposed project would utilize the
existing U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’
Marseilles Lock and Dam, and generate
the now-available capacity from the
recently terminated license in Project
No. 12020. The project would consist of:
(1) The existing 2,730-foot-long, 80-to
200-foot-wide North Head Race; (2) an
existing powerhouse containing six new
generating units having a total installed
capacity of 4.745 megawatts; (3) a
proposed 400-foot-long, 34-kilovolt
transmission line; and (4) appurtenant
facilities. The City’s proposed
Marseilles Hydroelectric Project for
power production at the North Head
Race would have an average annual
generation of 37 gigawatt-hours.
On May 20, 2008, Land and Water
Company filed an application, Project
No. 13231, for the proposed Boyce
Hydro-Marseilles Hydroelectric Project.
The proposed project would utilize the
existing U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’
Marseilles Lock and Dam, and would
consist of: (1) The existing 3,100-footlong, 200-foot-wide North Head Race;
(2) a proposed powerhouse containing
three new generating units having a
total installed capacity of 9.4 megawatts;
(3) the existing 110-foot-wide south
channel that narrows to approximately
50-feet-wide at the South Head Race; (4)
a proposed 400-foot-long, 34-kilovolt
transmission line; and (5) appurtenant
facilities. The proposed Boyce HydroMarseilles Hydroelectric Project would
have an average annual generation of 55
gigawatt-hours. Land and Water
Company’s proposed development
competes with the two permit
applications filed by the City.
