mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
On April 24, 2013, the Community of
Elfin Cove, DBA Elfin Cove Utility
Commission County (Elfin Cove) filed
an application for a preliminary permit,
pursuant to section 4(f) of the Federal
Power Act (FPA), proposing to study the
feasibility of the Crooked Creek and
Jim’s Lake Hydroelectric Project
(project) to be located on Crooked Creek
and Jim’s Lake, 70 miles east of Juneau,
in the unincorporated Sitka Recording
District, Alaska. 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
two developments, the Upper System
and the Lower System.
Upper System
(1) A 40-foot-long, 4-foot-wide, 4-footwide diversion structure to divert up to
five cubic feet per second (cfs) from
Crooked Creek; (2) a 1,450-foot-long, 1foot-diameter penstock extending
between the diversion structure and the
powerhouse; (3) a powerhouse
containing a 35-kilowatt (kW) power
recovery turbine; (4) a 25-foot-long, 8foot-wide, 3-foot-deep cobble-lined
tailrace discharging flows into Jim’s
Lake; (5) an underground 7,300-footlong, 7.2/12.47-kilovolt (kV)
transmission line extending from both
of the project powerhouses to Elfin
Cove’s existing 7.2/12.47-kV
transmission line; and (6) appurtenant
facilities.
Lower System
(1) A siphon intake located in Jim’s
Lake to divert seven cfs from Jim’s Lake;
(2) a 1,800-foot-long, 1.2-foot-diameter
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 229001
penstock extending between the siphon
intake and the powerhouse; (3) a
powerhouse containing a 125-kW Pelton
or impulse turbine; (4) a 150-foot-long,
8-foot-wide, 3-foot-deep cobble-lined
tailrace discharging flows into Port
Althorp; and (5) appurtenant facilities.
The estimated annual generation of
the project would be 672.7 gigawatthours. The project would be partially
located on 60 acres of federal lands
managed by the U.S. Forest Service in
the Tongass National Forest.
