Project Description

The proposed action is to drill four geothermal wells (two production and two injection), construct a binary-cycle powerplant and associated power substation and connect the wells with the powerplant with the necessary production and injection pipelines. A surface use water well for drilling fluids and sanitary water use for the plant will be located within the production well pad footprint. All site disturbances are proposed to fall on federal geothermal lease UTU-87418. 

Proposed site disturbances are approximately 14 acres.
