Brief reconnaissance study for the addition of hydropower for Doe Valley Lake Dam, Doe Valley, Kentucky

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5357957
The feasibility of retrofitting the Doe Valley Lake Dam near Doe Valley, Kentucky for power generation was examined. This dam has a developable head of 60 ft. and was built in 1961 to provide a water supply for residential and industrial use and to create a water recreation area. The study of environmental, institutional, safety and eonomic factors showed that hydroelectric power development at this site is marginally feasible. (LCL)
