upon lands or waters owned by others without the owners' express 
permission.
    The proposed project will consist of the following: (1) A 40-foot-
long, 8-foot-high, reinforced concrete diversion weir on Martin Creek; 
(2) a 45-foot-long, 15-foot-wide, 12-foot-high reinforced concrete 
intake structure adjacent to the Martin Creek weir with a trash rack, 
fish screen, and closure gate; (3) a 0.15-acre impoundment created by 
the Martin Creek weir; (4) a 1,100-foot-long, 3.5-foot-diameter steel 
penstock from the Martin Creek intake structure; (5) a 30-foot-long, 6-
foot-high reinforced concrete diversion weir on Kelley Creek; (6) a 30-
foot-long, 10-foot-wide, 12-foot-high reinforced concrete intake 
structure adjacent to the Kelley Creek weir with a trash rack, fish 
screen, and closure gate; (7) an approximately 0.1-acre impoundment 
created by the Kelley Creek weir; (8) a 800-foot-long, 3-foot-diameter 
steel penstock from the Kelley Creek intake structure; (9) a 9,900-
foot-long, 4-foot-diameter steel penstock from the connection of the 
Martin and Kelley Creek penstocks to the powerhouse; (10) a 60-foot-
long, 40-foot-wide reinforced concrete powerhouse containing one 
vertical impulse turbine with a capacity of 6.3 megawatts (MW); (11) a 
40-foot-long, concrete and rip rap-lined tailrace channel to return 
flows from the powerhouse to Martin Creek; (12) a 7.2/115 kilovolt (kV) 
three stage step up transformer; (13) an approximately 7.3-mile-long, 
115 kV transmission line which will tie into an undetermined 
interconnection; and (14) appurtenant facilities. The estimated annual
