Brief Reconnaissance Study for the Addition of Hydropower for Sandy Creek Dam, Ramseur, North Carolina
The feasibility of developing hydroelectric power at the Sandy Creek Dam in Ramseur, North Carolina was studied. This dam, built in 1978 for impounding municipal water supplies, has a developable head of 35 ft. Information is presented on: the site characteristics; the potential developer, customer power demand; environmental, institutional and safety aspects of the proposed development; power plant potential and characteristics; and the calculation of the costs and benefits of the proposal. Based on the assumptions used, hydropower development at this site was found to be economically feasible. (ERA citation 07:062813)
