Olmstead, Illinois. The newly
constructed Olmstead Lock and Dam
will extend in a south easterly direction
across the Ohio River from Illinois to
Kentucky.
Once the Corps dam is completed, the
proposed Green Thunder Project would
include facilities upstream and
downstream of the dam and on the
Illinois and Kentucky sides of the river.
The proposed project would consist of:
(1) Two new underwater frame modules
containing nine turbines each with a
total installed capacity of 36 megawatts;
(2) a new pre-fabricated, concrete-lined,
power canal that would transport water
from above the dam to below the dam
on the Kentucky side of the river and
contain the two aforementioned turbine
modules installed side by side; (3) a
new switchyard, transformer, and
control room which would be located
on the Illinois side of the river; (4) a
new transmission line, which would
extend across the river from the turbines
to an existing transformer tie-in located
about 1,000 feet from the Corps’ lock
and dam facilities; and (5) appurtenant
facilities. The Green Thunder Project
would have an estimated average annual
generation of 284,018 megawatts-hours,
which would be sold to a local utility.

filed an application, pursuant to section
4(f) of the Federal Power Act, proposing
to study the feasibility of the Racine
Hydrokinetic Project, to be located on
the Ohio River, in Meigs County, Ohio
and Mason County, West Virginia.
The proposed Racine Project would
be located approximately 500 feet
downstream of the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers Racine Lock and Dam. The
proposed project would consist of: (1)
Ten turbine generators, with a total
installed capacity of 350 kilowatts,
mounted to a single barge attached to
the riverbed; (2) an armored submarine
cable to transmit power generated to a
metering station and transformer on
shore at the southeast end of the Racine
Dam; (3) a new approximately 450-footlong, 13.2 kilovolt transmission line,
which would extend from an existing
substation to interconnect with the grid
at the existing hydropower facility at the
Racine Dam; and (4) appurtenant
facilities. The Racine Project would
have an estimated average annual
generation of 1533 megawatts-hours,
which would be distributed to the
power grid or sold directly to industrial,
commercial, or municipal users.
