Heard County Pumped Storage
Project; Notice of Preliminary Permit
Application Accepted for Filing and
Soliciting Comments, Motions To
Intervene, and Competing Applications
On January 31, 2023, BOST1
Hydroelectric, 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 a pumped storage hydropower project
located near the City of Enon Grove,
Heard County, Georgia. 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 Heard County Pumped
Storage Project would consist of the
following: (1) a 20-foot-long, 30-footdeep reinforced concrete intake
structure with trash racks, and a
pumping station on Hilly Mill Creek; (2)
a 24-inch-diameter fill pipeline to the
upper reservoir; (3) a geotextile lined
rock filled embankment forming an
enclosed upper reservoir; (4) a 66-footdeep enclosed upper reservoir with a
storage capacity of 5,300 acre-feet; (5) a
lower underground reservoir consisting
of concentric circular tunnels reaching a
depth of 2,100 feet below the surface,
with the total length of the tunnels
being 170,000 feet; (6) a reinforced
morning glory type water intake situated
within the upper reservoir with an outer
diameter of 95 feet and an inside
diameter of 38 feet; (7) a 23-footdiameter, 2,300-foot-long granite
bedrock vertical tunnel trifurcating into
three 10-foot-diameter steel lined
penstocks leading to three reversible
Francis pump turbines; (8) a 460-footlong, 80-foot-wide, 160-foot-high
PO 00000
Frm 00027
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
powerhouse, 200 feet below the lower
reservoir containing the three pump
turbine units with a total installed
capacity of 1,000 megawatts; (9) a
separate 60-foot-wide, 410-foot-long,
160-foot-high underground transformer
gallery near the powerhouse; and (10) a
1-mile-long, 500 kilovolt transmission
line east of the proposed upper
reservoir. The lower reservoir tunneling
would be accomplished using two 42.5foot-diameter tunnel boring machines
with an access ramp of the same size
from the surface. The powerhouse
would be excavated using traditional
drill and blast methods. The proposed
project would have an estimated annual
generation of 2,628,000 megawatt-hours.
