Project Description: The existing Hogansburg Project consists of: (1) A reservoir having a surface area of about 18.6 acres and a maximum storage capacity of approximately 112 acre-feet; (2) a 247-foot-long, 11.5-foot-high concrete gravity dam with a spillway crest elevation of 165.2 feet above mean sea level; (3) a 34-foot-long, 22-foot-high stoplog gate structure; (4) a 45-foot by 48-foot integrated intake/powerhouse structure at the dam’s right abutment; (5) a single S. Morgan Smith vertical propeller generating unit having a rated capacity of 485 kilowatts; (6) a 600-footlong tailrace having varying widths between 24 feet and 100 feet; and (7) 2.4-kilovolt (kV) generator leads extending about 25 feet to an adjacent electrical substation containing a 2.4/ 4.8-kV, 600-kilovolt-amperes, step-up transformer bank. A transmission line owned and operated by National Grid Corporation connects directly to the substation. Power generated at the project interconnects with the electrical grid at the substation. At the time the Commission issued the original license for the Hogansburg Project (1985), the Commission’s regulations did not require minor projects occupying non-federal lands to have an established project boundary. Therefore, the boundary for the project is being established through this relicensing process. l.
