Additional Comment from Alan Peeples (Reservoir Management, APCO):
Thanks, I appreciate that. Looks like you captured our conversation well. Just wanted to clarify that in my conversation with the NWS office last week, they stated that the pattern we have seen may be breaking. We (APC) will continue to monitor conditions closely and cautiously to see if that comes about. Also, the recreational releases at Jordan will be discontinued when all three upstream reservoirs (Weiss, Henry, and Logan) are 1 foot below their rule curves; it’s all 3, not just Logan Martin. There are also calculations for water availability that impact recreational releases at Jordan, not only the lake level trigger. APC’s hydro capacity is about 14% of APC’s total capacity (coal/gas/nuclear), but on average Hydro only produces about 6% of the energy for APC. Capacity and energy are different, but related. Capacity is the ability to produce electricity, while energy is the actual electricity produced, for example kilowatt-hours. I am not sure what the numbers look like so far this year, but I do know hydroelectric energy production for April was very low, only generated as we were releasing the required minimum flows.
I have already initiated the need for more detailed communications from here, and we are working to make that happen. I will let you know when we have put something together and how it will be disseminated. Also noticed that you filed LMLPA comments this morning, and that they have already been received by FERC.
