The project is located wholly within Richmond County, Augusta Georgia. The Project consists of two turbine/generator units. There is no dam associated with the Project. Instead, the Project withdraws water from the Augusta Canal and discharges it directly into the Savannah River. The King Mill Project Utilizes flows up to approximately 890 cfs. 2.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 2.1 Generator 2.1.1 Number and Capacity The facility consists of two hydroelectric generating units with a combined rated capacity of 2.25 MW and the description of each unit is as follows: Generator 1 (Large Unit): GE generator (1944), horizontally mounted 600 volts, 1500 KVA, 200 rpm, DC excitation with belt drive to manual rheostat - A-1 - Generator 2 (Small Unit): GE generator (1944), horizontally mounted 600 volts, 750 KVA, 200 rpm, DC excitation with belt drive to manual rheostat 2.1.2 Provisions for Future Units The stator for Unit #2 has recently been reconfigured to bring it back to its nameplate capacity (750kW). Additionally the necessary improvements required by Georgia Power for connection to the grid are being completed. Anticipated completion date of these improvements is the summer of 2007. 2.2 Turbines The Project powerhouse contains two turbines manufactured by S. M. Smith. The turbines operate with a 32 foot net head, drawing approximately 881 cfs of water from the Augusta Canal. Nameplate data for each unit is as follows: Turbine 1 (Large Unit): S.M. Smith horizontally mounted turbine, installed in 1922 43 inch type Q, double runner rated at 1,835 hp Turbine 2 (Small Unit): S.M. Smith horizontally mounted turbine, installed in 1922 43 inch type Q, single runner rated at 917 hp - A-2 - 2.3 Project Operation The Project withdraws water directly from the Augusta Canal, which is coordinated with the City of Augusta (FERC No. 11810), and discharges it directly into the Savannah River. The City controls the amount of flow into the Augusta Canal and therefore the amount of water delivered to the King Mill Project, however river flow on the Savannah River that is available for the canal is controlled by releases from three United States Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) projects located upstream of the Augusta Diversion Dam (ADD). Currently all of the power generated by the King Mill Project is used in manufacturing. This hydroelectric facility utilizes flows up to approximately 890 cfs from the Augusta Canal as its primary energy source. The project is presently in operation generating power for the manufacture of textiles Monday through Friday. The project is currently not in operation on weekends. The current plan is to maximize the hydroelectric generation by operating the hydroelectric plant seven days a week, twenty-four hours a day and sell the excess generated power to the Georgia Power Company. 2.4 Average Annual Energy Production The nameplate capacity of the King Mill Project is 2.25 MW. Maximum gross production is 19,710,000 kWh and net generating capacity is 19,170,000 kWh. The project produces between 13,000 megawatt hours (MWh) and 14,366 MWh annually. 2.5 Estimated Average Net Head Water is withdrawn from the Augusta Canal and released to the Savannah River via the project tailrace. The normal net head is 32 feet at a design flow of 881 cfs. - A-3 - 2.6 Impoundment Surface Area and Storage Capacity The King Mill Project has no dam or impoundment or storage capacity. Water is withdrawn from the Augusta Canal. 2.7 Project Structures 2.7.1 Intake The project works consist of a headgate and intake structure approximately 50 feet long and 15 feet high, located on the east bank of the City- owned Augusta Canal. Water from the Augusta Canal is conveyed to the project through an open headrace structure of approximately 250 feet in length. The water is returned to the Savannah River through an open tailrace. 2.7.2 Headrace The project supports a concrete lined, masonry open flume headrace, approximately 200 feet long and 40 feet wide. 2.7.3 Powerhouse The powerhouse is of brick and masonry construction containing the two generating units and a tailrace excavated in rock approximately 435 feet long and 30 feet wide. 2.7.4 Transmission Facilities The Project transmission facilities include generator leads for each of the units. Georgia Power Company maintains a small substation on-site. - A-4 - 2.7.5 Appurtenant Facilities Appurtenant facilities at the King Mill Project are limited to that electrical equipment needed to safely operate the project.

INDEX OF SURFACE-WATER RECORDS TO SEPTEMBER 30,1955 PAET 2. SOUTH ATLANTIC SLOPE AND EASTERN GULF OF MEXICO BASINS By P. R Speer and A. B. Goodwin EXPLANATION This index lists the streamflow and reservoir stations in the South Atlantic slope and Eastern Gulf of Mexico basins for which records have been or are to be published in reports of the Geological Survey for periods prior to September 30, 1955. Periods of record for the same station published by other agencies are listed only when they contain more detailed information or are for periods not reported in publications of the Geological Survey. The stations are listed in the downstream order first adopted for use in the 1951 series of water-supply papers on surface-water supply of the United States. Starting at the headwater of each stream all stations are listed in a downstream direction. Tributary streams are indicated by indention and are inserted between main-stem stations in the order in which they enter the main stream. To indicate the rank of any tributary on which a record is available and the stream to which it is immediately tributary, each indention in the listing of stations represents one rank.

  • Streamflow Maps of Georgia's Major Rivers
    GEORGIA STATE DIVISION OF CONSERVATION DEPARTMENT OF MINES, MINING AND GEOLOGY GARLAND PEYTON, Director THE GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Information Circular 21 STREAMFLOW MAPS OF GEORGIA'S MAJOR RIVERS by M. T. Thomson United States Geological Survey Prepared cooperatively by the Geological Survey, United States Department of the Interior, Washington, D. C. ATLANTA 1960 STREAMFLOW MAPS OF GEORGIA'S MAJOR RIVERS by M. T. Thomson Maps are commonly used to show the approximate rates of flow at all localities along the river systems. In addition to average flow, this collection of streamflow maps of Georgia's major rivers shows features such as low flows, flood flows, storage requirements, water power, the effects of storage reservoirs and power operations, and some comparisons of streamflows in different parts of the State. Most of the information shown on the streamflow maps was taken from "The Availability and use of Water in Georgia" by M. T. Thomson, S. M. Herrick, Eugene Brown, and others pub­ lished as Bulletin No. 65 in December 1956 by the Georgia Department of Mines, Mining and Geo­ logy. The average flows reported in that publication and sho\vn on these maps were for the years 1937-1955. That publication should be consulted for detailed information. More recent streamflow information may be obtained from the Atlanta District Office of the Surface Water Branch, Water Resources Division, U. S. Geological Survey, 805 Peachtree Street, N.E., Room 609, Atlanta 8, Georgia. In order to show the streamflows and other features clearly, the river locations are distorted slightly, their lengths are not to scale, and some features are shown by block-like patterns.
