City of Idaho Falls Low-Head Hydroelectric Demonstration Project. Emergency Action Plan
The City of Idaho Falls, Idaho is nearing completion of its Bulb Turbine Project which consists of three plants: City Plant, Lower Plant, and Upper Plant. These three plant sites are located on a seven mile stretch of the Snake River. The three projects will channel water through Voest Alpine bulb turbines powering Hitachi generators. The generating facilities will have a capacity of 8000 kW each, and produce a total of 170 million kWh per year. The design flow and head at each site are 6000 cfs and 19 ft respectively. Additionally, the City has two old 1.5 MW vertical shaft units at the Lower Plant which have been retained as peaking units when sufficient flows are available. The power plants will be unmanned, and controlled by SCADA equipment from a Central Control Building. The Central Control Building will be manned 24 hr a day by a generation operator. The City of Idaho Falls is hereby applying to FERC for an exemption from filing an emergency action plan. After reviewing probable modes of failure, the emergency hazard potential, and the impacts from probable failure, the City has concluded that no reasonably foreseeable project emergency would endanger life, health or property, based upon the information contained herein.
