Snohomish PUD files for Tidal Energy Pilot in Admiralty Inlet

On March 1, 2012, Snohomish County PUD No. 1 (the PUD) filed an application with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) for a 10-year pilot license that will allow the PUD to construct and operate the Admiralty Inlet Pilot Tidal Project (FERC No. 12690). The Final License Application (FLA) was developed after several years of studies and consultation with federal and state agencies, tribes, non-governmental organizations, and members of the public, all of whom devoted significant resources and expertise to this project. The FLA includes a description of Project facilities and operations, as well as proposed measures to monitor and safeguard public and environmental resources. A copy of the license application is available for review on the PUD’s website at: http://www.snopud.com/PowerSupply/tidal.ashx. Questions regarding the FLA can be directed to Craig Collar at (425) 783-1825.
