[Project No. 14986-000]
Notice of Preliminary Permit Application Accepted for Filing and
Soliciting Comments, Motions To Intervene, and Competing Applications;
California State University Maritime Academy
On April 17, 2019, the California State University Maritime Academy
(Cal Maritime) 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 Cal Maritime Marine Hydrokinetic Project (project).
The proposed project would be located in a navigable cove of the
Sacramento San Joaquin River (Carquinez Strait), located in the City of
[[Page 28799]]
Vallejo, in Solano County, California. 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 a floating power platform
located at Cal Maritime's property and use marine hydrokinetic
technologies to generate approximately 41,610 megawatt hours annually.
The floating platform would measure 120-feet-long by 40-feet-wide, and
14-feet-deep. Cal Maritime proposes to use the power generated by the
project on its campus and distribute the excess power through an
interconnect with Pacific Gas and Electric Company's Colgate-Oakland
transmission line.
