Lock+\TM\ Hydro Friends Fund XVI, LLC; Notice of Preliminary
Permit Application Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions
To Intervene, and Competing Applications
On March 1, 2019, Lock+\TM\ Hydro Friends Fund XVI, 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
Crooked Creek Dam Hydropower Project to be located at the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers' (Corps) Crooked Creek Dam on Crooked Creek in
Armstrong County, Pennsylvania. 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 30-
foot-wide, 30-foot-deep, 160-foot-tall modular frame structure to be
installed at the intake for the outlet pipe adjacent to the outlet
tower, containing two turbine-generator units with a rated capacity of
1,450 kilowatts each; (2) a new switchgear and control room located in
the modular structure; and (3) a new 13-kilovolt transmission line
connecting the modular structure with a nearby existing electrical
grid. The proposed project would have an annual generation of 12,750
megawatt-hours.
