Action Plan for the removal of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs)
contaminated sediments within the project boundary. The site consists
of approximately 0.75 acre of upland and 8 acres of contaminated
sediment along the shoreline of the Hudson River. The proposal consists
of removing approximately 5,150 tons of contaminated sediment from the
site, of which 3,800 tons are non-hazardous and 1,250 tons hazardous.
The hazardous sediment will be transported and deposited in a hazardous
material disposal site. The removal plan consists of: (a) lowering the
project's reservoir by 4 feet to the approximate elevation of 346 feet;
(b) installing a water-filled bladder cofferdam along the edge of the
river side of the site; (c) excavation of near shore material to a
uniform depth of 2 feet; (d) excavation of upland soil to a uniform
depth of 1 foot, within the upland soil excavation limits; and (e)
placement of erosion and sediment control measures. After removal is
completed the site will be restored. The restoration plan consists of:
(a) backfilling the site with 5,000 tons of backfill material and 1,550
tons of topsoil; (b) grading and placement of rip rap, a boulder edge
system, stone channels, and a boulder wall; and (b) revegetating the
site with woody species and field grass.

k. Status of Environmental Analysis: This application has been

l. Description of Project: The existing, operating Silver Lake
Project consists of three separate developments: (1) the Sugar Hill
storage reservoir; (2) the Sucker Brook diversion facility; and (3) the
Silver Lake dam, reservoir, and powerhouse.
The Sugar Hill reservoir, created by the Goshen Dam, has a surface
area of 74 acres and a gross storage capacity of 1,590 acre-feet at the
normal surface elevation of 1,768 feet United States Geological Survey
(USGS) datum. The Goshen Dam consists of an earthfill embankment
section, about 680 feet long with a maximum height of 60 feet, and a
spillway with a crest elevation of 1,768 feet (USGS) composed of two
sections. The eastern section, about 50 feet long, is constructed of
mortared rubble and capped with reinforced concrete; the western
section is about 100 feet long, and is constructed of reinforced
concrete, with wooden trash racks and a concrete gate. A square,
reinforced concrete conduit (4 feet by 4 feet), 12 inches thick, and
about 232 feet long, conveys water from an intake structure through the
embankment to the outlet structure. The reinforced concrete outlet
structure is controlled by five gate valves (with two 6-inch, two 8-
inch, and one 10-inch diameter valves) and discharges into Sucker
Brook.
The Sucker Brook diversion dam creates an impoundment with a
surface area of about 2 acres and a gross storage capacity of 20 acre-
feet at the maximum surface elevation of 1,312 feet USGS. At the normal
pond elevation of 1,288 feet USGS, the surface area of the impoundment
is less than a quarter of an acre, resulting in about 1 acre-foot of
storage volume. The dam consists of an earth embankment, approximately
665 feet long with a maximum height of 38 feet; the spillway consists
of a 60-foot-long concrete weir. An intake structure contains a
manually operated timber headgate with trash racks. A penstock with a
diameter ranging from 36 inches at the intake structure to 42 inches at
the outfall extends 7,000 feet from the Sucker Brook diversion dam to
Silver Lake, with sections comprised of corrugated metal, wood stave,
and concrete pipe.
The Silver Lake portion of the project consists of a reservoir with
a surface area of 110 acres and a gross storage volume of 3,120 acre-
feet at the normal surface elevation of 1,250 feet USGS. The dam
consists of a buttressed concrete wall section with earthfill on the
upstream and downstream sides of the wall. The dam is approximately 257
feet long with a maximum height of 30 feet. The intake is a reinforced
concrete structure with trash racks. There is a 60-foot-long conduit
that conveys water from the intake structure into the outlet structure,
which is also reinforced concrete topped with a wooden superstructure,
containing an electrically operated slide gate. A penstock extends
about 5,200 feet from the Silver Lake outlet structure to the
powerhouse. It is constructed of fiberglass (2,400 feet), wood stave
(100 feet), and steel (2,400 feet), with a surge tank located between
the wood stave section and the steel section. The penstock diameter
ranges from 48 inches at the intake structure to 36 inches at the surge
tank.
[[Page 8055]]
The project powerhouse is about 47 feet by 67 feet, with a concrete
substructure and a brick superstructure, containing: a single
horizontal Francis turbine, rated at 3,000 horsepower (hp), with a
maximum hydraulic capacity of 60 cubic feet per second (cfs), which
operates with a net head of 645 feet; a horizontal shaft generator,
rated 2,750 kilovolt-ampere (kVA); and appurtenant facilities. The
project's 2,200-kilowatt generator produces an average annual
generation of 6,443,000 kilowatt-hours.
m. Purpose of Project: Project power is distributed to customers of
the Central Vermont Public Service Corporation.
