Utica Power Authority, Northern California Power Agency; Notice
Establishing Deadline for Submission of Final Amendments
June 11, 1997.
The Angels Project No. 2699 and the Utica Project No. 2019 were
licensed to Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) on November 6,
1970, and July 11, 1951, respectively. The projects are located on
Angels Creek, North Fork Stanislaus River, Silver Creek, Mill Creek,
and Angels Creek in Alpine, Calaveras, and Toulumne Counties,
California. The licenses for the Angels Project expired on December 31,
1995, and the Statutory deadline for filing an application for a new
license was December 31, 1993. The license for the Utica Project
expired on May 8, 1996, and the statutory deadline for filing an
application for a new license was May 8, 1994.
PG&E filed applications for new licenses for both the Angeles and
the Utica Projects and the Northern California Power Agency (NCPA)
filed competing applications for the Angels Project (P-11452-000) and
the Utica Project (P-11477-000).
By order issued November 29, 1995, the Commission approved the
transfer of the original licenses for both projects from PG&E to the
Calaveras County Water District (CCWD) and the simultaneous transfer of
a portion of the Utica Project (Upper Utica Project, P-11563) to NCPA.
This portion consists of the Union Dam and Reservoir, the Utica Dam and
Lake, and the Alpine Dam and Lake. The current Utica Project (P-2019)
is the remaining original Utica Project, which includes the Mill Creek
Tap, Upper Utica Conduit, Hunters Reservoir, the Lower Utica Conduit,
Murphys Forebay, Murphys Powerhouse, with an installed capacity of 3.6
MW, and Murphys Afterbay.
By order issued March 18, 1997, the Commission approved the
transfer of both licenses from CCWD to the Utica Power Authority (UPA).
By virtue of these transfers, UPA and NCPA have assumed the respective
portions of PG&E's applications for Project Nos. 2019 and 2699.
Pursuant to section 15(c)(1) of the Federal Power Act, the deadline
for the applicants (UPA and NCPA) to file final amendments, if any, to
their applications is September 30, 1997.
Any questions concerning this notice should be directed to Hector
M. Perez on (202) 219-2843.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
