k. Description of Project: The licensee proposes to lease 2.7 acres
of land on the eastern shoreline of Lay Reservoir (Coosa River)
downstream of the confluence with Cedar Creek to the Utilities Board,
City of Sylacauga, Alabama for the construction and operation of a raw
water intake and pumping station with the capacity to withdraw 30
million gallons per day for municipal water supply. The proposed
facilities would be developed on a vacant parcel at the intersection of
Cedar Creek Circle and Edwards Drive, adjacent to a residential
subdivision. Project facilities would include a 48-inch-diameter,
buried, intake pipe that extends approximately 1,320 feet into the
reservoir. Installation of this intake line would require dredging
approximately 1,900 cubic yards of river bottom silt and sand, which
would be disposed of at an offsite, upland location. The intake opening
would be screened to minimize the entrainment and impingement of fish.
