Description of Project: The existing SAWS Naco Hydroelectric Project is part of the CRP project, with the purpose to demonstrate the commercial viability of the LucidPipe Power System. The LucidPipe Power System is an in-conduit hydropower device that captures excess head pressure in large diameter water pipelines. The water flow in the CRP pipeline at Naco is reduced from a 36-inch-diameter to a 24-inch-diameter pipe at a valve control station, and three 18-kW turbinegenerators, located along the 24-inchdiameter section of the CRP, take advantage of the increased pressure flow. The energy produced is connected to a motor control center at Naco, and is used to off-set electricity purchased from CPS Energy of San Antonio, TX. When a Petition for Declaratory Order is filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, the Federal Power Act requires the Commission to investigate and determine if the interests of interstate or foreign commerce would be affected by the proposed project. The Commission also determines whether or not the project: (1) Would be located on a navigable waterway; (2) would occupy or affect public lands or reservations of the United States; (3) would utilize surplus water or water power from a government dam; or (4) if applicable, has involved or would involve any construction subsequent to 1935 that may have increased or would increase VerDate Mar<15>2010 14:45 Jun 12, 2012 Jkt 226001 the project’s head or generating capacity, or have otherwise significantly modified the project’s pre-1935 design or operation. l.

The project affects federal lands administered by the Forest Service (San Juan National Forest). 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 new facilities: (1) An upper reservoir, formed by a 130-foothigh by 6,500-foot-long, rollercompacted concrete (RCC) or embankment dam, with a total storage capacity of 8,000 acre-feet and a water surface area of 275 acres at full pool elevation; (2) a lower reservoir, formed by a 270-foot-high by 800-foot-long dam, having a total storage capacity of 9,500 acre-feet and a water surface area of 200 acres at full pool elevation; (3) two 15foot-diameter steel penstocks consisting of a surface penstock, a vertical shaft, and an inclined tunnel; (4) two 27-footdiameter tailrace tunnels that would be 850-feet-long; (5) an underground powerhouse containing two reversible pump-turbines totaling 500 megawatts (MW) (2 units x 250 MW) of generating capacity; and (6) a 7-mile-long, 230 kilovolt (kV) transmission line that would connect the switchyard with an existing 230 kV interconnection east of the project area. The project’s annual energy output would vary between 600 and 1,500 gigawatthours. Applicant Contact: Mr. Kenneth W. Curtis, III, Dolores Water Conservancy E:\FR\FM\13JNN1.SGM 13JNN1
