    k. Description of Project: The proposed project would consist of: 
(1) a 15-foot high concrete-faced rockfill dam; (2) an approximately 
8,400-foot-long, 12-inch-diameter penstock; (3) a powerhouse with one 
impulse-type turbine with a rated generating capacity of 220 kilowatts 
(kW) and a peak capacity of approximately 250 kW; and (4) a 4-inch raw-
water pipeline that would deliver up to 19.8 acre-feet of water per 
year for domestic water supply to the City of Chignik.
    When a Declaration of Intention is filed with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, the Federal Power Act requires the Commission to 
investigate and determine if the project would affect the interests of 
interstate or foreign commerce. The Commission also determines whether 
or not the project: (1) would be located on a navigable waterway; (2) 
would occupy public lands or reservations of the United States; (3) 
would utilize surplus water or water power from a government dam; or 
(4) would be located on a non-navigable stream over which Congress has 
Commerce Clause jurisdiction and would be constructed or enlarged after 
1935.
