Clean River Power 16, LLC; Notice of Preliminary Permit
Application Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To
Intervene, and Competing Applications
November 8, 2010.
On October 22, 2010, Clean River Power 16, LLC filed an application
for a preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the Federal Power
Act, proposing to study the feasibility of the Kitano Water Power
Project, located in Kauai County, in the state of Hawaii. 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 developments:
(1) The existing Kokee Ditch Irrigation System comprised of
multiple intakes, two reservoirs, and a series of ditches and tunnels;
(2) a new upper intake including a trashrack and control gate; (3) a
new 26,700-foot-long, 36-inch-diameter steel penstock; (4) a proposed
40-foot-long and 75-foot-wide upper powerhouse made with reinforced
concrete; (5) a 4 MVA 4.16/695kV three-phase step-up transformer
located in a switchyard 50 feet from the powerhouse; (6) dependent on
the results of the proposed studies, a new 2-mile transmission line
interconnecting with the existing utility transmission line between the
Kahaka switchyard and the Kaumakani substation; (7) The proposed
development would have an average annual generation of 23,100 megawatt-
hours.
