Energy Resources USA, Inc.; Notice of
Preliminary Permit Application
Accepted for Filing and Soliciting
Comments and Motions To Intervene
On February 9, 2017, Energy
Resources USA Inc., (Energy Resources)
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 Caddo Dam
Hydroelectric Project (project) to be
located at the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers’ Caddo Dam on the Cypress
Bayou in Caddo Parish County,
Louisiana. 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: (1) A 70-foot-long, 60foot-wide intake area; (2) a 75-foot-long,
36-foot-wide powerhouse containing
two vertical Kaplan generating units
with a total capacity of 5 megawatts; (3)
a 350-foot-long, 65-foot-wide tailrace;
(4) a 60-foot-long, 50-foot-wide
substation; and (5) a 0.35-mile-long, 69
kilovolt transmission line. The
estimated annual generation of the
project would be 21.15 gigawatt-hours,
and would operate as directed by the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
