Lock and Dam 1, Mississippi River, Minneapolis - St. Paul, Minnesota. Reconnaissance Report for Hydropower
This report presents a preliminary evaluation of additional hydropower at the existing navigation Lock and Dam 1. An existing hydropower plant at the site has a capacity of 14,400-kW. The study shows that installation of a new additional hydroplant with a 4,000-kW or 8,000-kW nameplate rating is economical. Pertinent data concerning the site and two optional installations are given. Severe environmental impacts do not appear to be associated with construction of a new plant of the sizes investigated. The District Engineer recommends that the Corps of Engineers prepare a feasibility report which can serve as a basis for congressional authorization for hydropower plant construction at Lock and Dam 1.
