The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has accepted an application from Oglethorpe Power Corporation for a new major license to operate the Rocky Mountain Pumped Storage Hydroelectric Project located on Heath Creek in Georgia. This project includes various structures like a dam, reservoir, and a powerhouse with a total capacity of 904 megawatts. The public has 60 days from the notice date to intervene or protest this application. The information is available for review online, and assistance in navigating the process is provided by the Commission's Office of Public Participation.
Simple Explanation
Imagine a giant water park in Georgia where people can store and release lots of water to make electricity. The people in charge want to keep running it, and the energy department says people have 60 days to say if they’re okay with it or not. If people need help sharing their opinions, there are friendly folks ready to guide them.
