capacity at existing powerplants, and constructing conventional and <br />pumped storage hydroelectric peaking capacity at new sites. <br />Installing power generating facilities at dams, existing <br />canal drops, and other sites with adequate head is being investigated. <br />Several pumped-storage facilities for peaking power are also being <br />investigated. Potential environmental impacts caused by peaking power <br />will be investigated. <br />b. Current Studies <br />Current studies include Flaming Gorge and Dolores units. <br />C. Diamond Fork <br />Diamond Fork Power System, part of the Bonneville Unit of the <br />Central Utah Project, has demonstrated potential hydroelectric power and is <br />number one on the power peaking prioritization list. <br />d. Rewinding Generators <br />Also, the region has embarked on a program of rewinding <br />and uprating generators at Glen Canyon, Blue Mesa, and Flaming Gorge. <br />5. Wasatch Front Total Water Management Study-Reclamation will <br />work with the State of Utah in investigating the most efficient use of all <br />sources of water. <br />C. Construction <br />The construction amount of $183,015,000 for fiscal year 1984 includes <br />the following programs. <br />1. Central Utah Project Units <br />a.
