The building currently houses a 440 MW fossil-fired plant. Three Ranney-style wells, located approximately 12 miles southeast of Vernal, Utah, draw water from the Green River. The water is then conveyed through a 22-mile-long concrete-lined pipeline to the Raw Water Terminal Building. The hydro generator will be installed in the Raw Water Terminal Building between the existing inlet and outlet headers taking advantage of the pressure and flow through the Raw Water system. When a Declaration of Intention is filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, the Federal Power requires the Commission to investigate and determine if the interests of interstate or foreign commerce would be affected by the project. The Commission also determines whether or not the project: (1) would be located on a navigable waterway; (2) would occupy or affect public lands or reservations of the United States; (3) would utilize surplus water or water power from a government dam; or (4) if applicable, has involved or would involve any construction subsequent to 1935 that may have increased or would increase the project's head or generating capacity, or have otherwise significantly modified the project's pre-1935 design or operation.
