to replace the existing 6-foot-high
wooden flashboards on the 176-feet long
north section of spillway, which has a
crest elevation of 534.2 feet, with an
inflatable crest gate system. The
proposal would result in a top crest
elevation of 534.2 feet and the top of the
inflatable crest gate, when fully raised,
would be 539.9 feet (same as existing
impoundment elevation). During
construction, the applicant requests to
temporarily draw down the
impoundment (normal pond elevation
at 539.9 feet NGVD29) to install a
cofferdam on the upstream face of the
dam to facilitate safe work conditions.
The applicant proposes to draw down
the impoundment from June 29 to July
20, 2023 by approximately 1.2 feet to
install the cofferdam. Then the
applicant would install the cofferdam
and begin phase 1 construction from
July 21 to mid-September, and during
this phase proposes to maintain the
water level at the dam crest elevation.
Phase 2 construction would last from
mid-September to November 23, and no
draw down below the dam crest is
anticipated during the transition from
the phase 1 to phase 2. Finally, the
cofferdam removal draw down is
anticipated to last approximately 1
week, from November 23 to December 2,
2023 (water levels would be drawn
down to elevation 533.0 ft or
approximately 1.2 feet below the dam
crest). During construction, the
applicant proposes to continue to
operate the project in a run-of-river
mode and would maintain minimum
flow requirements during and after
construction.

Premium Energy Holdings, LLC; Notice
of Preliminary Permit Application
Accepted for Filing and Soliciting
Comments, Motions To Intervene, and
Competing Applications
On March 31, 2022, Premium Energy
Holdings, 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 the
Santa Margarita Pumped Storage Hydro
Project to be located approximately 10
miles southeast of Lan Luis Obispo,
California in San Luis Obispo County.
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 project would consist of
the following: (1) an existing upper
reservoir (Santa Margarita Lake) at an
elevation of 1,300 feet above average
mean sea level, with a surface area of
1,100 acres and a total storage capacity
of 23,840 acre-feet; (2) an existing lower
reservoir (Lopez Lake) at an elevation of
560 feet above average mean sea level,
with a surface area of 950 acres and a
storage capacity of 49,900 acre-feet; (3)
0.84-mile-long headrace tunnel, 0.19mile-long vertical shaft, 5.86-mile-long
horizontal tunnel, 0.09-mile-long
penstock, and 1.22-mile-long tailrace
tunnel to connect the powerhouse to the
reservoirs; (4) a new powerhouse that
would house 4 new pump-turbines
rated at 150 megawatts each; (5) a new
substation constructed in the western
shore of Lake Lopez near the
powerhouse, interconnected to the
regional electrical utility network with
either; (6) a new 2.5-mile-long 500kilovolt (kV) transmission line from the
powerhouse to a new switchyard
located 1.3 miles south of the Lopez
dam that will connect with PG&E’s 500kV line, or a new 4.5-mile-long 500-kV
line that will connect the powerhouse to
PG&E’s 500-kV line at a new switchyard
located 0.5 miles from Talley Vineyard
using Lopez road as an existing right-ofway; and (7) appurtenant facilities. The
estimated annual power generation at
the Santa Margarita Pumped Storage
Project would be 1,200,000 megawatthours.
