Hydro operational restrictions forum: Licensee and stakeholder workshop summary. Final report
- Kearns and West, Inc., San Francisco, CA (United States)
Relicensing review and other regulatory activities associated with continued operation of hydro generation projects have drawn increased attention to hydro resources. This attention has typically resulted in imposition of conditions having a substantial cost impact without necessarily reflecting a full appreciation of the resource`s benefits and attributes. With the extensive countrywide effort in relicensing and regulation underway, there is an opportunity to collect and compile lessons learned. This is particularly true with respect to preferred practices, technologies, and techniques applicable to required studies and mitigation measures. Such compilation will enable the industry and related stakeholders to improve quality and effectiveness while reducing costs of relicensing and mitigation for continued hydro operations. As a technology leader for the industry, EPRI is in a unique position to identify and document these techniques and practices. The objective was to determine and document preferred practices, technologies, and techniques for studies and mitigation measures required for hydropower facility licensing and compliance.
