New England Hydropower Company,
LLC; Notice of Preliminary Permit
Application Accepted for Filing and
Soliciting Comments, Motions To
Intervene, and Competing Applications
On August 2, 2018, New England
Hydropower Company, LLC, filed an
application for a preliminary permit,
pursuant to section 4(f) of the Federal
Power Act (FPA), proposing to study the
feasibility of hydropower at Lock 47 on
the Lehigh Canal in the city of Easton,
Northampton County, Pennsylvania.
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 landdisturbing activities or otherwise enter
upon lands or waters owned by others
without the owners’ express permission.
The proposed Lehigh Canal Hugh
Moore Park East Hydroelectric Project
would consist of the following: (1) An
existing 20-foot-high concrete gravity
dam (i.e., the Chain Dam on the Lehigh
River); (2) an existing impoundment
with a storage capacity of 1,197 acre-feet
at a normal maximum surface elevation
of 192 feet mean sea level; (3) an
existing 50-foot-wide, 2.5-mile-long
canal that stretches from above the
Chain Dam where water enters the canal
to where it reconnects with the Lehigh
River downstream, approximately one
half of a mile above the Easton Dam; (4)
a new 20-foot-wide, 40-foot-long intake
channel parallel to Lock 47; (5) a new
16-foot by 32-foot powerhouse
containing two Archimedes Screw
turbine-generator units with a total
capacity of 485 kilowatts; (6) a new 20foot-wide, 40-foot-long tailrace channel;
(7) a new 460-kilovolt, 210-foot-long
transmission line connecting the
powerhouse to a nearby grid
interconnection point; and (8)
appurtenant facilities. The proposed
project would have an average annual
generation of 3,398 megawatt-hours.
