Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 137 / Wednesday, July 17, 2024 / Notices
Submissions sent via any other carrier
must be addressed to: Debbie-Anne A.
Reese, Acting Secretary, Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 12225 Wilkins
Avenue, Rockville, MD 20852. All
filings must clearly identify the project
name and docket number on the first
page: Gilman Dam Hydroelectric Project
(P–9650–036).
m. The application is not ready for
environmental analysis at this time.
n. The existing Gilman Dam Project
consists of the following: (1) a 190-footlong, 7-foot-high concrete gravity dam
(Gilman Dam) that includes a spillway
with a crest elevation of 421 feet mean
sea level (msl); (2) an impoundment
with a surface area of 1.0 acre at an
elevation of 421 feet msl; (3) an intake
structure equipped with a headgate and
trashrack with 1.5-inch clear bar
spacing; (4) a 175-foot-long, 6-footdiameter penstock; (5) a 40-foot-long,
50-foot-wide, brick and concrete
powerhouse with a Vertical Francis
turbine-generator unit with an
authorized installed capacity of 125
kilowatts; (6) a 50-foot-long tailrace; (7)
a 0.6 kilovolt (kV) generator lead; (8) a
0.6/4.16 kV step-up transformer; (9) a
4.16 kV transmission line; (10) a
downstream fish passage facility for
Atlantic Salmon; and (11) appurtenant
facilities.
The current license requires Factory
Falls to operate the project in
instantaneous run-of-river mode, so that
flow in the Black River, as measured
immediately downstream from the
project tailrace, approximates the
instantaneous sum of the inflow to the
project impoundment. The current
license also requires Factory Falls to
release a minimum flow of 9 cubic feet
per second (cfs) over the spillway or
through the fish passage facility during
passage season, and 40 cfs in an
uncontrolled bypass channel on the
west side of the dam, and to operate the
downstream fish passage from April 1
through June 15. The project has an
average annual generation of 550
megawatt-hours.
Factory Falls propose to continue
operating the project in a run-of-river
mode. Factory Falls also propose to
increase the minimum flow over the
spillway from 9 cfs to 10 cfs by
maintaining the impoundment 1 inch
above the spillway crest.
