They got it right on the other points though.) Getting real on wind and solar By James Schlesinger and Robert L. Hirsch, Washington Post, 04/24/2009 Why are we ignoring things we know? We know that the sun doesn't always shine and that the wind doesn't always blow. That means that solar cells and wind energy systems don't always provide electric power. Nevertheless, solar and wind energy seem to have captured the public's support as potentially being the primary or total answer to our electric power needs. Solar cells and wind turbines are appealing because they are "renewables" with promising implications and because they emit no carbon dioxide during operation, which is certainly a plus. But because both are intermittent electric power generators, they cannot produce electricity "on demand," something that the public requires. We expect the lights to go on when we flip a switch, and we do not expect our computers to shut down as nature dictates. -
Review Article Magma Loading in the Southern Coast Plutonic Complex, British Columbia and Washington
GeoScienceWorld Lithosphere Volume 2020, Article ID 8856566, 17 pages https://doi.org/10.2113/2020/8856566 Review Article Magma Loading in the Southern Coast Plutonic Complex, British Columbia and Washington E. H. Brown Department of Geology, Western Washington University, USA Correspondence should be addressed to E. H. Brown; [email protected] Received 2 May 2020; Accepted 22 September 2020; Published 10 November 2020 Academic Editor: Tamer S. Abu-Alam Copyright © 2020 E. H. Brown. Exclusive Licensee GeoScienceWorld. Distributed under a Creative Commons Attribution License (CC BY 4.0). The southen end of the 1800 km long Coast Plutonic Complex (CPC), exposed in the Harrison Lake area of British Columbia and in the North Cascades of Washington, bears a record of great crustal thickening -20 to 40 km in localized zones during Late Cretaceous times. During this period, the CPC was positioned at the continental margin during collision/subduction of the Farallon plate. Arc magmatism and regional orogenic contraction were both active as potential crustal thickening processes. Magmatism is favored in this report as the dominant factor based on the delineation of four spatially and temporally separate loading events, the close association of the loaded areas with emplacement of large plutons, and a paucity of evidence of deep regional tectonic contraction. The timing and spatial location of crustal loading events are documented by the following: zircon ages in plutons; an early event of low pressure in pluton aureoles evidenced by andalusite, now pseudomorphed by high- pressure minerals; high pressures in country rock in pluton aureoles measured by mineral compositions in the assemblages garnet-biotite-muscovite-plagioclase and garnet-aluminum silicate-plagioclase; high pressures recorded in plutons by Al-in- hornblende barometry; and uplift ages of plutons derived from K-Ar and Ar-Ar ages of micas and hornblende in plutons. -

Lake Chelan Basin Overview View ‘Up-Lake’ of 90 Km (50 Mile) Long, 453 M (1486 Ft.) Deep Lake Chelan
J. Riedel Contributions to the 2018 Pacific Northwest Friends of the Pleistocene Field Conference Stop 1.2: Lake Chelan Basin Overview View ‘up-lake’ of 90 km (50 mile) long, 453 m (1486 ft.) deep Lake Chelan. There are three basins comprising Lake Chelan separated by bedrock sills: Stehekin, Lucerne, and Wapato (Figure 2). The Lucerne Basin is the deepest and longest, with relief of > 3200 m (10,660 000 ft.) from the bedrock floor of the valley to the summit of Bonanza Peak (2900 m) on its west valley wall (Figure 2). The shallower Wapato Basin is in part dammed by glacial drift south of Chelan (Stop 1.4; Runner 1921). Figure 1. Location of Lake Chelan in north-central Washington. Blue arrows at top indicate Fisher and Rainy passes, where Cordilleran Ice Sheet entered Chelan watershed. Waitt (2017) noted the ice sheet was 760 m thick over Rainy Pass. Figure 2. Longitudinal profile of the bottom of Lake Chelan (top) and seismic profiling of sub-bottom (UW and NPS unpublished). The Lucerne and Stehekin basins are superimposed on resistant Skagit Gneiss and Tertiary igneous bedrock. The upper part of the valley is cut into resistant gneiss, which allows the canyon walls to stand near vertically along the upper lake. The deepest part of Lake Chelan occurs in the Lucerne Basin in The Straits near Falls Creek, where the bedrock changes from gneiss to erodible volcanic rocks and schist. The lower two basins are separated at the Narrows, an accumulation of landslide debris from Slide Ridge on the south shore, and bedrock on the north shore (Whetten, 1967). -

Lake Chelan Recertification Review Report 2018
REVIEW OF APPLICATION FOR RE-CERTIFICATION BY THE LOW IMPACT HYDROPOWER INSTITUTE OF THE LAKE CHELAN HYDROELECTRIC FACILITY Prepared by Patricia McIlvaine December 26, 2018; links added January 21, 2019 I. INTRODUCTION This report summarizes the review of the application submitted by the Public Utility District No. 1 of Chelan County (Chelan PUD or Applicant) to the Low Impact Hydropower Institute (LIHI) for re-certification of the Lake Chelan Hydroelectric Project FERC P-637 (Lake Chelan or Project). The Project was initially certified by LIHI as Low Impact in 2008 and re-certified in December 2012 as LIHI Certificate No. 30. The expiration date of the Certificate has been extended to allow for this review. This current re-certification review was conducted in compliance with LIHI’s Handbook, 2nd Edition, dated March 7, 2016. The December 2012 Recertification Report can be accessed via the link below. https://lowimpacthydro.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Recommendation-Memo-Lake-Chelan- 2012.pdf The Project’s December 2012 re-certification had no conditions. II. RECERTIFICATION PROCESS AND INITIAL ASSESSMENT Under the 2016 LIHI Handbook, reviews are a two-phase process starting with a limited review of a completed LIHI application, focused on three questions: (1) Is there any missing information from the application? (2) Has there been a material change in the operation of the certified facility since the previous certificate term? (3) Has there been a change in LIHI criteria since the Certificate was issued? In accordance with the Recertification Standards, if the only issue is that there is some missing information, the applicant will have the opportunity to provide the missing information, and this may or may not trigger a Stage II review. -
