Adam Robert Rousselle, II; Notice of Preliminary Permit
Application Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To
Intervene, and Competing Applications
On February 5, 2015, Adam Robert Rousselle, II 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 Nockamixon Dam
Water Power Project (project) to be located on Tohickon Creek, in Bucks
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) The
existing Nockamixon dam, which is 1,511 feet long and approximately 112
feet high discharging into Tohickon Creek; (2) Nockamixon dam impounds
a reservoir of 40,000 acre-feet with a surface area of 1,450 acres, at
a pool elevation of 395.0 feet mean sea level; (3) a proposed
reinforced concrete powerhouse housing three pump turbine generating
units with a total installed capacity of 150 kilowatts; (4) a proposed
826-foot-long, 34.5-kilovolt primary transmission line connected to
Metropolitan Edison Company; and (5) appurtenant facilities. The
estimated annual generation of the project would be 834,000
kilowatthours.
