k. Description of Request: Flood
events in February 2017 caused
extensive erosion to the service and
emergency spillways at the Oroville
Dam, part of the Feather River
Hydroelectric Project. The area has been
declared a federal major disaster. To
protect public safety, DWR must restore
project function before the wet season
returns in late 2017. The erosion at the
spillways compromised two towers
supporting primary transmission lines.
As part of DWR’s broad emergency
response and recovery efforts, DWR
proposes to permanently relocate
approximately two miles of the 230-kV
transmission lines onto lands across the
Feather River from the damaged
spillways outside the current project
boundary. The relocation would avoid
future damage to the transmission lines,
facilitate reconstruction of the
spillways, and restore a reliable route
for electricity to and from the dam’s
power plant. Given the urgent need to
complete the recovery effort,
Commission staff have accepted the
May 17 filing as an application for a
non-capacity amendment of the project
license. On June 1, 2017, Commission
staff issued a letter to DWR requesting
additional information.
l. Locations of the Application: This
filing may be viewed on the
Commission’s Web site at https://
