Plans to construct a new third hydroelectric power plant at Black Canyon Diversion Dam along the Payette River near Emmett have been placed on hold -- due to a new business case analysis that shows construction costs are greater than the benefits of additional power generation, U.S. Bureau of Reclamation officials said.
“Early indications were: this was a financially-feasible project that would boost power generation by upgrading an existing Reclamation facility,” said Project Manager David Denton. “But using current energy prices, it’s apparent that the project should be placed on hold until energy prices rebound.”
Although the third hydroelectric unit project is on hold, some construction will still take place at the facility over the next few years. The Bureau of Reclamation plans to move forward with the design and relocation of a new power switchyard and upgrades to control systems at the dam.
“The switchyard and control systems are a top priority because they pose a clear safety risk to employees and facility equipment,” said Snake River Area Office Manager Roland Springer.
Black Canyon Diversion Dam is a multi-purpose facility that provides water for irrigation, hydropower, and recreation. It was constructed by the Bureau of Reclamation back in 1924 as part of the Payette Division of the Boise Project.

The Lake James to Fontenelle Park Project is one of a series of projects in the Minne Lusa Basin intended to remove and/or control flows in the Combined Sewer System which will reduce the frequency, magnitude and duration of CSOs.
This project specifically is intended to expand the size and storage capacity of the existing Fontenelle Lagoon and separate portions of the upstream drainage basins to direct additional stormwater for detention in the improved Fontenelle Lagoon. By providing additional storage capacity, stormwater flow rates and volumes will be reduced in the downstream combined sewer system, thereby potentially reducing the size and cost of downstream facilities and reducing overflows to the Missouri River. By partnering with City Parks for this project, the Lagoon will be expanded. Water quality in the Lagoon will be improved and, with the additional depth anticipated, it will be stocked with fish provided by Nebraska Game and Parks.
The project will be constructed in two separate construction packages. The construction of the Fontenelle Lagoon Improvements is underway, allowing for the Lagoon to be drained and excavated. Additional sewer construction and structures to control trash and water quality within the park will also be built with this construction package.
The Lake James to Fontenelle Park Sewer Separation construction is anticipated to begin in the spring/summer of 2018 to the south, west and north of Fontenelle Park. This sewer separation construction will convey stormwater to the new and improved Fontenelle Park Lagoon.

Check Valve Cartridges for Manifold Block
The spherical poppet-type check valve of the RKVE-VD22 series is a cost-optimized alternative to the RKVE-VD for applications up to 220 bar. This series is characterized by very high pressure load capacity and extremely low Δp. Compared with the RKVE…, the permissible flow rate for the RKVE…-VD22 valve series has been increased by 50% for the same pressure differential. Valve seat, poppet and body are unhardened. The valve has a cutting edge for metal to-metal sealing. By eliminating the soft seal, the valve can be applied without regard to temperature and pressure fluid. The valves prevent flow in the screw-in direction (B to A) and open in the opposite direction. The valve is available in nominal sizes 04, 06, 08 and 10.

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission on May 5 approved an April 2015 application from FFP Project 92 LLC for an original license to construct and operate the proposed Kentucky River Lock and Dam No. 11 Hydroelectric Project (L&D 11 Project).
The 5-MW project will be located at the Kentucky River Authority’s Lock and Dam No. 11 on the Kentucky River, near the Town of Waco in Madison and Estill counties, Kentucky. The project will not occupy federal land.
The L&D 11 Project dam is located at river mile (RM) 201. In 2015, commission staff issued licenses for projects at two upstream lock and dam structures: Lock 12 Partners’ Ravenna Hydroelectric Project at Lock and Dam No. 12 (RM 220.9); and Lock 14 Hydro Partners LLC’s Heidelberg Hydroelectric Project at Lock and Dam No. 14 (RM 249).
Lock and Dam No. 11 consists of a 208-foot-long, 35-foot-high fixed concrete gravity dam that acts as an uncontrolled spillway at a crest elevation of 583.05 feet, an abandoned 148-foot-long, 52-foot-wide navigation lock structure located on the south river bank, and a 579-acre reservoir (Pool No. 11).
The project will include the following new facilities: a 275-foot-long, 75-foot-wide reinforced concrete intake located in the abandoned lock and partly within an existing esplanade; a 260-foot-long, 47-foot-high intake channel guide wall to be installed along the esplanade to convey flows to be used for generation into a 30-foot-long, 47- foot-high, 64.5-foot-wide intake and headgate structure to be built within the existing lock structure and extending beyond the south lock wall into the riverbank; and trash racks with 3-inch clear bar spacing to be installed on the project intake.
The powerhouse will contain two 2.5-MW horizontal pit Kaplan turbine generator units, for a total installed capacity of 5 MW. Flows exiting the powerhouse will be returned to the Kentucky River through a 190-foot-long, 78-foot-wide reinforced concrete tailrace channel with a 295-foot-long, 35-foot-high retaining wall.
The project’s transmission facilities will include a new 40-foot-long by 40-foot-wide 69-kV substation with a new 212-foot-long, 4.16-kV underground transmission cable from the powerhouse to the substation, and an approximately 4.5- mile-long, 69-kV overhead transmission line extending from the substation to an existing substation located near Waco, Kentucky.
As noted above, the commission issued original licenses for the Heidelberg and Ravenna projects with 40-year terms, expiring Dec. 31, 2055. To coordinate the license term of the L&D 11 Project with the Heidelberg and Ravenna license orders, this license is for a 39-year, 8-month license term, to coincide with the expiration of the Heidelberg and Ravenna projects.

Thames Water has begun a £1.2M project to almost double the capacity of its Rapsgate storage reservoir near Cirencester, taking the total capacity to 1.17M.l.
Work has begun on building a second cell on the reservoir, which will hold 500,000l of water. The existing reservoir cell holds 670,000l. The project will be completed in April 2012.
The addition of a new cell means the original reservoir can be drained and inspected once every 10 years without any disruption to supply.
Thames Water head of capital delivery Lawrence Gosden said the project will “reinforce” Thames Water’s water supply. “We are required to inspect our reservoirs every 10 years so this work is essential, as Rapsgate is a critical reservoir and cannot be taken out of service,” he said. Rapsgate serves 1,268 homes.


Pumps of the series SC have a segmental type construction with open vane wheel impellers. The construction of the SC pump is a so-called centrifugal combined system. This combination pump is suited with a centrifugal stage in serial connection before the side channel stages to obtain a more favourable NPSH. This pumps a especially designed to the LPG filling stations.
The SC is, due to its special design, very suitable for problem-free pumping of clean liquids at unfavourable suction side conditions. The SC can also be used for NPSHA of 0,4 - 0,65 m. The SC is especially developed for LPG-plants (pumping of propane, butane and bottom off-loading).


An official opening ceremony was held for the Yusufeli Dam on the Çoruh River in northeastern Artvin province of Turkey at the weekend, with the country’s president Recep Tayyip Erdogan stating that once complete it will add over $221 million to the economy every year.

China’s colossal 22.5 GW Three Gorges Dam is now working at full capacity after the last of its 32 generators went into operation, said state news agency Xinhua.
“The full operation of the generators makes the Three Gorges Dam the world’s largest hydropower project and largest base of clean energy,” said Zhang Cheng, general manager of China Yangtze Power (SSE: 600900).
The dam on the Yangtze River entered operation in 2003 at a cost of $22.5bn but has proved controversial.
Its construction involved relocating 1.4 million people and raised fears over pollution and earthquakes. The dam’s reservoir stretches 600 km through an area riddled with geological fautlines.

Uzbekistan to commission second Tupolangsk HPS buy late 2012
Uzbekistan, Tashkent, Sept. 22 / Trend D.Azizov /
Uzbekistan will put into operation the second Tupolangsk hydro power stations (HPS) (the Surkhandarya region) with a capacity of 145 megawatts by late 2012, Deputy Director General of Uzvodenergo (Uzsuvenergo) Abdulaziz Zakirov told journalists.
Uzvodenergo, which is in the management of the Agriculture and Water Management Ministry, started construction of a second phase of the Tupolangsk HPS worth 61.8 billion soums (about $ 40 million). Uzsuvenergo will finance the project through own resources.
Within the project, it is planned to install two power units with the capacity of 72.5 megawatts each and expand water reservoir. The project implementation will increase capacity of Topalangsk hydro power station to 175 megawatts.
The volume of water reservoir will rise from 120 million cubic meters to 500 million cubic meters, he added.
Zakirov said that new capacities of Topalangsk hydro power station will be commissioned by late 2012.
First two power units of Topalangsk hydro power station was commissioned in 2006. Capacity of each unit is 15 megawatts each.
The company also plans to complete construction of hydroelectric Gissarak HPS with two units with a capacity of 22.5 megawatts each by late 2010.
The company is likely to commission two small power plants- Shahimardan HPS with incapacity of 2.2 megawatt on the Koks River in the Fergana region and Gulba HPS with incapacity of 6 megawatt - the Dargom irrigation canal in the Samarkand province.
As previously reported, Uzbekistan has adopted a program to develop small hydropower sustem.
Under the program on development of small hydropower by 2010, Uzbekistan planned to build 15 hydropower plants with total capacity of 423 MW and elaboration of 1.36 billion kWh of electricity per year.
In 2010-2014, Uzbekistan plans to build nine small hydropower plants on the country's natural watercourses with total capacity of 323.6 megawatt, the total preliminary cost of $255.7 million.
By 2012, it is planned to build small hydropower plant "Kamolot" at the Chirchik-Bozsu highway (includes in the system Chirchik-Bozsu Cascade) worth about $11.3 million and an annual design capacity of 8 megawatt. Construction of new hydro power plant will produce annually 35 million kWh of electricity, which is equivalent to fuel savings in the amount of 11 million cubic meters of natural gas per year.
Specialists estimate that Uzbekistan has a dozen of reservoirs, irrigation canals and mountain rivers where it can build 141 hydroelectric power stations with total capacity of 1800 megawatts and annual power engineering of 4.6 billion kwh.
So far, six stations with total capacity of 152.2 MW have been put into operation.
At present, Uzbekistan power system includes 42 power plants with total capacity of 123,580 megawatt. The bulk of electricity - about 90 percent is produced by 10 thermal power plants with total installed capacity 10.6 million kilowatt.
According to the Republic's State Statistics Committee, in 2009 Uzbekistan reduced production of electricity by 0.3 percent compared to 2008 - to 49.954 billion kWh. In January - June 2010 electricity production in Uzbekistan increased by 3.1 percent compared to the same period of 2009 - to 25.945 billion kWh.

As part of a stormwater management solution, a split wall chamber has been designed to enable a contractor to install a flow control chamber using modern methods of construction.
The spilt wall chamber enables a flow control device to be place on either side of the wall within the flow control chamber to regulate the flow of stormwater within a drainage system preventing downstream flooding during heavy rainfall.
This precast concrete split wall flow control chamber has been designed to allow for inspection of either side of the flow control device once installed.
Marshalls Civils & Drainage can supply with sectional weir walls chambers from 1800mm to 3000mm or a 2100mm one-piece unit.
The split wall chamber can be manufactured to any height and can be supplied with pre-fitted either a Hydro-Brake®, Penstock, Non-Return Flap Valve, Orifice plate or any combination.
The one-piece chamber is fabricated using a base unit complying BS EN 1917:2002.
Advantage of Split Wall Flow Control Chamber Solutions:
- Speed of installation and construction as the chambers are delivered ready to install.
- Guaranteed consistence of design/construction through offsite manufacture.
- Reduction in excavated material on-site ensuring a combination of flow control devices in one manhole.
- Designed to suit specific application, bespoke options, made to customers specifications.

Can two liquid level relays be used in a single tank? One would be for low level detection and a second for high level detection.Product Line:
Control Relays - GIC ProductEnvironment:
Yes, in this application two relays could be used. The second high level relay's probes will not interefere with the low level probes as the high level probes will only become wet when the water has hit its high point. At this point it will not matter if the high level probe picks up the low level probe signal. In either case it will detect liquid and change it's contacts over.

National Dam Inspection Program. Mountain Shadow Lake Dam (NDI ID Number PA 00244, DER ID Number 19-75), Susquehanna River Basin, Beaver Run, Columbia County, Pennsylvania. Phase I Inspection Report.
CORPS OF ENGINEERS BALTIMORE MD BALTIMORE DISTRICT
Pagination or Media Count:
The visual inspection and review of available design and construction data indicate that Mountain Shadow Lake Dam is in fair condition. The primary deficiency noted during the inspection was the lack of rock protection for the spillway discharge channel along the downstream toe of the embankment. The hydrologic and hydraulic computation indicate that the combination of reservoir storage and spillway discharge capacity will pass 92 of the PMF prior to overtopping the embankment. Therefore, the spillway for Mountain Shadow Lake Dam is considered to be adequate. Recommended actions to be taken by the owner without delay are listed.

Division Ave Drainage
The Division Ave Drainage project is a multi-phase project consisting of the construction of a storm water management system in the Division Avenue area to regulate peak storm flow and sediment loads flowing out of the City of Brookings. The existing channel and storm piping did not have adequate capacity and flooding of low lying properties was regular. The first phase, completed in 2012, consisted of a storm drainage study of a 45 acre drainage basin. Phase 2 was the design and construction of a concrete drainage channel along Western Avenue. The channel ties into several previously built concrete and metal culverts.
To tie into the existing culvert, the concrete channel was designed at a 0.14% slope. With such a minor slope, construction staking and close observation was required for proper construction. SRF funding was provided for Phase 2 and included DBE and Davis-Bacon wage requirements. CDI collected DBE forms, American steel certifications, and certified payrolls in accordance with SRF requirements.
The third and final phase consisted of the demolition of two storage buildings and pavement to make way for a 5.5 acre-foot detention pond. The detention pond was completed in 2016 under the engineer's estimate and well before the stipulated completion date.
CDI provided hydraulic analysis, preliminary and final designs, provided all topographic and construction surveying, construction observation and project management services.

BHOJPUR: Two hydropower projects are taking shape in the eastern hilly district of Bhojpur. One project is already under-construction while the other is going to begin construction works.
With an investment of over one billion rupees, Taksar-Pikhuwa River Hydropower Pvt Ltd, with a capacity of eight megawatts, is about to begin construction works. The company is constructing the hydropower plant with an investment of Rs 1.5 billion, as informed by Founder Chairman Ambika Prasad Dhakal.
He further informed that the project is going to be constructed at Sitkel Behere of Bhojpur Municipality-12, and the hydropower project construction is targeted to be completed by April 2020.
Likewise, Pikhuwa River Hydropower Project — the under construction hydropower project — situated at Paluwa of Bhojpur Municipality-6 of the district has also picked up pace.
The under-construction project of five megawatt capacity, construction of which has been on-going with the investment of Eastern Hydropower Company, has picked its pace of construction works in the past one year.
The Eastern Hydropower Company had begun the construction of the Pikhuwa River Hydropower Project in BS 2066 after taking government approval for 2.5-megawatt capacity. The company, which had the intention of increasing the project capacity, had not been able to take the construction work forward for sometime. It has, however, picked up pace in the past one year after receiving permission to increase the capacity to five megawatts.
Project’s Chief Engineer Roshan Shah said that though the company and Nepal government has a power purchase agreement (PPA) valid till BS 2076, works are going on to complete the construction and start production by BS 2075. He further added that around 40 percent dam-related work is only remaining, and other works related to tunnel construction have already been completed.
The construction company has indicated that in total 70 percent works have been completed on the Pikhuwa River Hydropower Project and the construction is expected to be fully completed before the PPA deadline, with the support that has been received from the stakeholders, according to Dipen Rai of the project.
The project with an investment of 1.14 billion rupees is currently employing around 400 labourers from Nepal and India, who work at the project site.

Glen Canyon Dam, 15 miles upstream from Lees Ferry, is the key feature of the CRSP. This 710-foot-high structure provides more storage capacity than all other storage features of the project combined. The concrete arch dam has a crest length of 1,560 feet and contains 4,901,000 cubic yards of concrete. Thickness of the dam at the crest is 25 feet, and the maximum base thickness is 300 feet.
A separate spillway is constructed in each abutment. Each spillway consists of an intake structure with two 40- by 52.5-foot radial gates and a lined spillway tunnel. The downstream portions of the spillway tunnel were used during construction as diversion tunnels. Each spillway tunnel reduces in size from 48 to 41 feet in diameter. The combined spillway discharge capacity is 208,000 cubic feet per second at an elevation of 3,700.0 ft.
The outlet works near the left abutment of the dam consist of four 96-inch-diameter pipes. Each outlet is controlled by one 96-inch-ring follower gate and one 96-inch hollow-jet valve. The combined river outlet works capacity is 15,000 cubic feet per second.
Total capacity for Lake Powell is 27 million acre-feet, and the active capacity is 20,876,000 acre-feet. At normal water surface elevation, the reservoir has a length of 186 miles and a surface area of 161,390 acres.
The powerplant at the toe of the dam consists of four 118,750-kilowatt and four 136,562-kilowatt generators driven by eight turbines. Total nameplate generating capacity for the powerplant is 1,021,248 kilowatts. Eight penstocks through the dam convey water to the turbines. Each penstock reduces in size from 15 to 14 feet in diameter.
Navajo sandstone forms the canyon walls at the damsite and throughout most of the reservoir basin. The sandstone is remarkably uniform and homogeneous over wide areas and nearly identical samples can be obtained from areas separated by many miles. The Navajo sandstone is buff to reddish, medium to fine-grained, and moderately hard to soft. It is massive with pronounced crossbedding and commonly indistinct horizontal bedding. The sandstone is moderately porous and highly absorptive, owing to the high capillarity created by the small size of intergrain pore spaces.

Main spare part of centrifugal pump
The main spare part are impeller, pump case and shaft seal device.
The impeller’s function is to transfer the mechanical energy of the prime mover directly to the liquid to increase the hydrostatic energy and kinetic energy of the liquid (mainly to increase the static pressure energy).
Impellers generally have 6 or 12 hind curved blades.
There are three types of impeller: open, semi-closed and closed.
The open impeller has no cover plate on both sides of the blade. It is simple to manufacture and easy to clean. It is suitable for conveying the material with a large amount of suspended matter. The efficiency is low and the liquid pressure is not high. The semi-closed impeller has no cover plate on one side of the suction port and a cover plate on the other side, which is suitable for conveying materials which are easy to precipitate or contain particles, and the efficiency is also relatively low. Closed impeller has front and back cover plate on both sides of blade, high efficiency, suitable for transporting clean liquid without impurity. The general centrifugal pump impeller is more such.
The impeller has two kinds of suction ways: single suction and double suction.
2, pump casing
The function is to seal the impeller in a certain space so that the impeller can inhale and press out the liquid. The pump case is made into a volute, so it is also called a volute. Due to the gradual expansion of the cross section of the passage, the velocity of the high speed liquid ejected from the impeller decreases gradually, which effectively converts part of the kinetic energy into static pressure energy. The pump housing not only collects the liquid thrown by the impeller, but also is an energy conversion device.
3,Shaft sealing device
The function is to prevent the liquid in the pump shell from leaking along the shaft or the outside air into the pump shell.
The commonly used shaft seal device has packing seal and mechanical seal two kinds.
Fillers are usually filled with soaking oil or asbestos rope coated with graphite. The mechanical seal mainly depends on the relative movement between the moving ring mounted on the shaft and the static ring fixed on the pump case to achieve the purpose of sealing.
