Myers, Iron Men and Copper Wires (Glendale: Trans-Angle Books, 1983); and David H. Redinger, The Story of Big Creek (Los Angeles: Angelus Press, 1949). The majority of these images are elsewhere in the collection in their original format. Scope and Contents The Southern California Edison collection of negatives and photographs consists of roughly 80,000 images created and acquired by the company from approximately 1883 – 1980s, with the bulk of the collection covering 1910 - 1960. Formats include glass and film negatives, photo cards, loose photographs, photograph albums, lantern slides, and related materials. Most of the images were produced by Edison staff and contract photographers to document Edison facilities, products, photCL SCE 2 operations, activities, and employees and for the purposes of education, advertising, training, and liability. The SCE collection offers a range of subjects far broader than the company's original intent. In addition to infrastructural images of transmission lines, steam plants, substations, equipment, vehicles, and hydroelectric plants, the company captured the uses of light and electricity in its myriad capacities, including night lighting of streets, billboards, storefronts, and gas stations; electric kitchens and appliances in domestic and industrial settings such as restaurants and cafes; agricultural innovations in the dairy and poultry industries; lighting for recreational uses such as swimming pools, bathhouses, tennis courts and golf courses; office work and lighting; and accident scenes and disasters, particularly the St. Francis Dam disaster of 1928. Edison superintendent Benjamin F. Pearson began visually documenting aspects of the company in 1896. Pearson, an avid amateur photographer, took pictures of Edison Electric Company (EEC) facilities until 1904 when G. Haven Bishop (1879–1972) was hired as the company's first full-time staff photographer. Using an 8 x 10- inch view camera, Bishop recorded approximately 30,000 scenes during an Edison career that spanned more than three decades, or until 1939. Bishop's work is found in Series 1 through 7, and comprises most of subseries 2. Doug White became staff photographer around 1940 during the critical period of World War II and postwar suburbanization. The archive contains approximately 5,000 negatives by White. His photographs are supplemented by those of Robert K. Noble (1895-1957), an Edison employee and skilled amateur photographer who functioned as a semi-official company photographer upon request. White's photographs are primarily found in subseries 5. Beginning in 1952, Edison hired outside vendors to produce most of its photography. In 1978, SCE acquired the files of two of its most widely used photographers: Joe Fadler (1924-2013) and Art Adams. Fadler began shooting for Edison in 1951, mostly for Public Information, Advertising, Commercial, Operating, and the Engineering and Community Relations divisions. The archive contains approximately 24,856 images between 1951 and 1974 by Fadler in subseries 6. Art Adams worked for Edison beginning in 1959 and shot much of the material that appeared in Edison News as well as recording other special events and meetings. The archive contains approximately 4,000 negatives in subseries 8 by Adams, from 1959 through 1978. Together Fadler and Adams covered the construction of all three San Onofre Nuclear Plants (SONGS); the Sylmar earthquake of 1971; Mandalay Water Desalinization Plant; environmental treatment of Edison facilities; street lighting developments; the first Electro-Static Precipitator at El Segundo; management meetings and special events; construction of Mammoth Pool; and the operation of coal plants at Four Corners and Mojave. Biographical / Historical Southern California Edison (SCE) is the largest electric utility in California, serving more than 14 million people in 15 counties of central, coastal and southern California. The company traces its origins to several regional light and power companies, including Holt and Knupp in Visalia, California, Santa Barbara Electric Light Company, and Riverside Water Company. West Side Lighting Company and Los Angeles Edison Electric Company merged in 1897 to form Edison Electric Company (EEC) of Los Angeles, with John Barnes Miller serving as general manager. Miller, called "The Great Amalgamator," bought 40 power companies over the next five years. In 1909, Miller renamed the expanded entity, Southern California Edison. In 1911, the Pacific Light and Power Company (PL&P) – then owned principally by Henry E. Huntington –began construction of the Big Creek hydroelectric project in the High Sierras. The company further expanded the operation in 1913, making Big Creek the largest hydroelectric project in the world. PL&P conveyed all rights and properties to Southern California Edison in 1917, thus uniting the two largest utilities in Southern California. Big Creek construction occurred over three distinct phases, which is documented in the collection in depth. Phase 1 (1911-1914): Building Powerhouses Nos. 1 and 2 and Huntington Lake; Phase 2 (1917-1929) Expansion of Big Creek, including Huntington Lake storage and additional generating units to Powerhouse Nos. 1 and 2; construction of Florence Lake, Shaver Lake, Mono-Bear Diversions and Siphon, Powerhouse No. 2A, Powerhouse No. 8, and Powerhouse No. 3; Phase 3 (1948-1960), Construction of Redinger Lake, Lake Thomas A. Edison, Mammoth Pool Reservoir, Powerhouse No. 4, Mammoth Pool Powerhouse, Portal Powerhouse, and several small diversions. Other historic milestones in the collection include: the 1902 survey of the Colorado River; construction and 1924 opening of Long Beach Steam Plant No. 2, the first modern steam plant on the West Coast; passage of The Boulder Canyon Act of 1928, designating SCE's operation of some Hoover Dam generators; completion in 1930 of SCE's Art Deco headquarters at Fifth and Grand in Los Angeles; construction of the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS) in 1963, with units 2 and 3 added in 1972; acquisition of California Electric Company, or Cal-Electric, in 1964; and the opening of Solar One in 1982, the nation's first large-scale solar generation site. Companies acquired by Southern California Edison and represented in the collection are Pacific Light & Power Company; Mount Whitney Power Company; the Nevada-Electric Corporation (which operated the Nevada-California Power Company, photCL SCE 3 the Southern Sierras Power Company, the Hoton Power Company, the Imperial Ice and Development Company, the Cain Irrigation Company, and the Hillside Water Company); and the California-Electric Power Corporation (also known as Cal-Electric). • Southern California Edison records, 1848-1989 (mssSouthern California Edison records) • Southern California Edison motion picture film (mssSCE MP) Immediate Source of Acquisition Gift of Edison International,

  • SCE Petition for Declaratory Order
    Troutman Sanders LLP 401 9th Street, N.W., Suite 1000 Washington, D.C. 20004-2134 troutman.com Charles R. Sensiba [email protected] June 17, 2019 Ms. Kimberly D. Bose, Secretary Federal Energy Regulatory Commission 888 First Street, NE Washington, DC 20426 Re: Southern California Edison Company; Petition for Declaratory Order and Request for Expedited Consideration; Project Nos. 67-__, 120-__, 2085-__,2086-__, 2174-__, 2175-__ Dear Secretary Bose: As set forth in the enclosed Petition for Declaratory Order (“Petition”), Southern California Edison Company (“SCE”) respectfully requests the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC” or “Commission”) to declare on an expedited basis that the California State Water Resources Control Board (“SWRCB”) has waived authority under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act1 (“CWA”) for failure to act on SCE’s requests for water quality certification (“WQC”) within the statutorily prescribed one-year time period for all six projects within the Big Creek Hydroelectric System (collectively referred to as the “Big Creek Projects”) that are pending for relicensing before the Commission. For purposes of this Petition, the Big Creek Projects consist of Big Creek Nos. 2A, 8, and Eastwood Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. 67); Big Creek No. 3 Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. 120); Mammoth Pool Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. 2085); Vermilion Valley Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. 2086); Portal Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. 2174); and Big Creek Nos. 1 and 2 Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. 2175).2 The Commission’s relicensing of the Big Creek Projects has been delayed for well over a decade—and in some instances for nearly 20 years—due in large measure to SWRCB’s consistent annual direction that SCE submit a withdrawal-and-resubmittal letter for the express purpose of attempting to provide SWRCB another year to act on SCE’s WQC requests.

  • Terr–3 Special-Status Plant Populations
    TERR–3 SPECIAL-STATUS PLANT POPULATIONS 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY During 2001 and 2002, the review of existing information, agency consultation, vegetation community mapping, and focused special-status plant surveys were completed. Based on California Native Plant Society’s (CNPS) Electronic Inventory of Rare and Endangered Vascular Plants of California (CNPS 2001a), CDFG’s Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB; CDFG 2003), USDA-FS Regional Forester’s List of Sensitive Plant and Animal Species for Region 5 (USDA-FS 1998), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Species List (USFWS 2003), and Sierra National Forest (SNF) Sensitive Plant List (Clines 2002), there were 100 special-status plant species initially identified as potentially occurring within the Study Area. Known occurrences of these species were mapped. Vegetation communities were evaluated to locate areas that could potentially support special-status plant species. Each community was determined to have the potential to support at least one special-status plant species. During the spring and summer of 2002, special-status plant surveys were conducted. For each special-status plant species or population identified, a CNDDB form was completed, and photographs were taken. The locations were mapped and incorporated into a confidential GIS database. Vascular plant species observed during surveys were recorded. No state or federally listed special-status plant species were identified during special- status plant surveys. Seven special-status plant species, totaling 60 populations, were identified during surveys. There were 22 populations of Mono Hot Springs evening-primrose (Camissonia sierrae ssp. alticola) identified. Two populations are located near Mammoth Pool, one at Bear Forebay, and the rest are in the Florence Lake area.

  • A Comparison of the Environmental Effects of Open-Loop and Closed-Loop Pumped Storage Hydropower April 2020
    A Comparison of the Environmental Effects of Open-Loop and Closed-Loop Pumped Storage Hydropower April 2020 PNNL-29157 Acknowledgments This work was authored by the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), operated by Battelle and supported by the HydroWIRES Initiative of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Water Power Technologies Office (WPTO), under award or contract number DE-AC05-76RL01830. HydroWIRES Initiative The electricity system in the United States is changing rapidly with the large-scale addition of variable renewables. The flexible capabilities of hydropower, including pumped storage hydropower (PSH), make it well-positioned to aid in integrating these variable resources while supporting grid reliability and resilience. Recognizing these challenges and opportunities, WPTO has launched a new initiative known as HydroWIRES: Water Innovation for a Resilient Electricity System.1 HydroWIRES is focused on understanding and supporting the changing role of hydropower in the evolving electricity system in the United States. Through the HydroWIRES initiative, WPTO seeks to understand and drive utilization of the full potential of hydropower resources to help reduce system-wide costs and contribute to electricity system reliability and resilience, now and into the future. HydroWIRES is distinguished in its close engagement with the DOE National Laboratories. Five National Laboratories—Argonne National Laboratory, Idaho National Laboratory, National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and PNNL—work as a team to provide strategic insight and develop connections across the DOE portfolio that add significant value to the HydroWIRES initiative. HydroWIRES operates in conjunction with the DOE Grid Modernization Initiative,2 which focuses on the development of new architectural concepts, tools, and technologies that measure, analyze, predict, protect, and control the grid of the future, and on enabling the institutional conditions that allow for quicker development and widespread adoption of these tools and technologies.
