Premium Energy Holdings, LLC; Notice
of Preliminary Permit Application
Accepted for Filing and Soliciting
Comments, Motions To Intervene, and
Competing Applications
On March 10, 2021, 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
San Onofre Ocean Pumped Storage
Project (San Onofre Project or project),
an ocean pumped storage power plant to
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:00 Jun 14, 2024
Jkt 262001
be located in San Diego County,
California. The project would occupy
federal land managed by the Department
of Defense, Camp Pendleton. 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 new 266-foot-high
embankment with a total crest length of
3,850 feet, creating the 26,400 acre-foot
upper reservoir, called San Onofre
reservoir, with a maximum surface
elevation of 915 feet above mean sea
level (msl); (2) two proposed
alternatives to draw water from the
Pacific Ocean for the fill-up process of
the proposed San Onofre reservoir and
for normal operation: (a) impound
intake/discharge facility (Lagoon),
including a new proposed semi-open
lower reservoir in the ocean close to the
coast, cutting part of the existing
submarine cooling pipes to an estimated
length of 1,400 feet, constructing a new
breakwater embankment around the
lagoon to create this ocean reservoir,
and constructing a pier to connect the
beach and the breakwater embankment;
(b) open intake/discharge using the
ocean as the lower reservoir, consisting
cutting part of the existing submarine
cooling pipes to an estimated length of
2,500 feet; either alternative requires a
new section of pipes that will reroute
the existing cooling pipes assembly to
the proposed powerhouse; (3) a 41-footdiameter, 1.2-mile-long hydro power
penstock to connect to the new San
Onofre pump storage plant, and from
there to the Pacific Ocean; (4) three
additional upper reservoirs with
maximum surface elevation of 915 feet
above msl and storage capacity of 2,300-,
3,500-, and 6,800-acre-foot, to increase
the storage capacity acting as a reserve
in case of need for generation beyond
the capacity of the main reservoir; (5) a
new powerhouse containing six 250megawatt (MW) pump-generator sets
with a total installed capacity of 1,500
MW; (6) an array of four velocity caps
at the end of each existing submersible
pipe, that were used to draw water from
the ocean for pumping, to reduce water
velocity to values about 1 ft/sec or less;
(7) a fish deterrent system at the end of
each existing submersible pipe; (8) a
new underground drainpipe for San
Onofre reservoir spill water; (9) nine
existing transmission lines that belong
to SCE and SDG&E, and are operated by
PO 00000

CAISO and interconnect the proposed

gigawatt-hours.

Premium Energy Holdings, LLC; Notice of Preliminary Permit
Application Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To
Intervene, and Competing Applications
On March 10, 2021, 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 San
Onofre Ocean Pumped Storage Project (San Onofre Project or project), an
ocean pumped storage power plant to be located in San Diego County,
California. The project would occupy federal land managed by the
Department of Defense, Camp Pendleton. The sole purpose of a

San Onofre Project will be 5,250 gigawatt-hours.
