j. Description of Existing Facilities:
The inoperative project consists of the
following existing facilities: (1) Timbercrib dam with an overall length of 60
feet and a maximum height of 10 feet;
(2) an intake structure; (3) a 2-inchdiameter, 50-foot-long steel penstock;
and (4) a powerhouse containing one
unit with a total capacity of 18
kilowatts.
k. Description of Proceeding: The
exemptee is currently in violation of
Standard Article 1 of its exemption
granted on October 8, 1982 (21 FERC
¶ 62,070). Section 4.106(a) of the
Commission’s regulations, 18 CFR
4.106(a) (2011), provides, among other
things, that the Commission reserves the
right to revoke an exemption if any term
or condition of the exemption is
violated. The project has not generated
since the early 1990s and has been
abandoned by the exemptee. By not
operating the project as proposed and
authorized, the exemptee is in violation
of the terms and conditions of the
exemption.
Based on staff’s most recent
inspection on August 18, 2010, the
exemptee has not made any progress
toward bringing the project back into
operation. On April 13, 2011,
Commission staff sent a letter to the
exemptee requiring him to show cause
why the Commission should not initiate
a proceeding to terminate the exemption
based on his implied surrender of the
exemption. The letter directed the
exemptee to provide information,
including documentation of contracts
issued, permits obtained, agreements
made, etc., and to show cause why the
Commission should not terminate the
exemption for lack of adequate progress
toward the resumption of generation at
the project. To date, the exemptee has
failed to respond and the project
remains inoperative. Commission staff
continues to inspect the project every
