The proposed project would consist of
the following: (1) A bypass intake in the
afterbay of Black Butte reservoir; (2) two
2,800-foot-long pressurized, reinforced
concrete pipes creating approximately

Kaplan turbine-generators; and (4) an
undefined interconnection point to the
grid within several hundred feet of the
proposed powerhouse. The estimated
annual generation of the Black Butte
Project would be 22,000 megawatthours.

(2) a new 200-foot-long by 200-foot-wide
concrete powerhouse containing three
generating units each rated at 5.0
megawatts (MW) having a total installed
capacity of 15 MW; (3) a new 100-footwide, 300-foot-long tailrace channel; (4)
new concrete retaining walls upstream
