Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To Intervene, and 
Competing Applications

    On March 19, 2019, Tomlin Energy 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 Closed Loop Pumped 
Storage Project (project) to be located on the Kiamichi River, in 
Pushmataha County, Oklahoma. 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 2,050-
foot-long, 200-foot-high earth embankment upper dam; (2) an upper 
reservoir with a surface area of 100 acres and a storage capacity of 
10,000 acre-feet; (3) a 8,200-foot-long, 32-foot-diameter tunnel 
connecting the upper and lower reservoirs with a; (4) a pumping 
station/powerhouse containing four pump/generating units with a total 
capacity of 1,200 megawatts; (5) a 7,600-foot-long, 40-foot-high earth 
embankment lower dam with a 300-foot-wide emergency spillway and 
channel to the impoundment pond; (6) a lower reservoir with a surface 
area of 200 acres, and a storage capacity of 28,000 acre-feet; (7) two 
1,000-foot-long pipes, with a pump station structure, from the lower 
reservoir to an impoundment pond; (8) an impoundment pond with a 
surface area of 30 acres, and a storage capacity of 1,800 acre-feet, 
which will fill with periodic overflow from the Kiamichi River; and (9) 
a 46-mile-long transmission line to the Tenaska Kiamichi Generation 
Station, then an 85-mile-long transmission line to the Luminant Valley 
Power Plant.
    The proposed project would have an estimated average annual 
generation of 4,200,000 megawatt-hours.
