<br />Juring water year 1982, a significant effort
<br />vas made to complete National
<br />;nvlronmental Policy Act compliance for the
<br />lropased upratlng of generators at Glen
<br />~anyon Powerplant, The. ?f()?O~ed upra\\ng
<br />11 each of the eight generators from a
<br />naxlmum capacity of 143,75 megawatts (MW)
<br />o a maximum capacity of approximately
<br />67.00 MW Involves replacing or relnsulatlng
<br />leld wIndings. strengthening rotor arms, and
<br />naklng mInor mechanical modifications such
<br />IS changing the fan assembly to IncreBss
<br />i1Tflow cooling.
<br />
<br />n January 1982, a Draft Environmental
<br />~ssessm8nt for Glen Canyon Powerplant
<br />}pratlng was circulated for public comment.
<br />)ue to adverse response to thIs document,
<br />'rimarlly from environmental groups and the
<br />Iver recreation tOmmunlty, Reclamation
<br />ponsored a river trip In the GrB:nd Canyon
<br />urlng the period of May 24-27, 1982, to aI/ow
<br />"'lose people Involved In, or those people who
<br />ould be affected by, an upratlng decision to
<br />bssrve firsthand some of the potential
<br />roblems which were Identified by those
<br />ommentlng on the Draft Environmental
<br />.ssessment. It was concluded that
<br />;eclamatlon should InitIate a cooperative
<br />ludy with the NPS to determine the Impact ot
<br />1e present operation of Glen Canyon
<br />owerplant on the Grand Canyon and to
<br />Jrther assess various alternatives to the
<br />resent operation. The results of this study
<br />
<br />B
<br />
<br />will ailow Reclamation to determine how best
<br />to u5e the additional capacity.
<br />
<br />The final Environmental Assessment on the
<br />Glen Canyon Powerplant upratlng Is
<br />scheduled \0 be's.ued by December 1982; a
<br />decision as to whether to proceed with the
<br />upratlng Is expected to follow shortly
<br />thereafter.
