Last Minute Productions Student Activities Plentiful Cullowhee Dam May Operate Again by Rose Pritchard About two years ago. Western Carolina worked with TVA conducting a survey of all dam sites to determine whether any of the small dam sites had potential to make electricity economically. Ten dams were selected. The one in Cullowhee was one of them. At each of the sites, a reconnaissance evaluation was completed. The evaluation determined that ours had sufficient potential for a full technical feasibility study. That study was going to cost us about $30,000.00. "The Department of Energy had a loan assistance program at that time, and we thought we could borrow the money." said Mr. Culp. Director of the Physical Plant. Ihe federal loan program was cancelled. Subsequently, we applied to the N.C.Alternative Energy- Corporation for funding assistance on that project, and they determined our plant did not quality for the specific terms of their grant program." I.ast month. TVA found a way to prov ide funding for our dam. They are in the process of conducting that study. The study will let us know how much power we can get out of the plant and how much it will cost to put the plant back into operation. The plant went out ol operation in 1964 because of some technical problems of tying it in with the Nantahala. the plant may be recomissioned again. "il it is feasible, we will have to find a source of funds to put it into operation." said Mr. Culp. Initial estimates say it can produce 5.500.000 kilowatt hours per year. The University uses about eighteen million kilowatt hours per year. That 550.000 kilowatts represents about 30', of the total usage. The University's bill is in excess of $415,000.00 per year. The reconnaissance survey done about I _\ years ago estimated $120,000.00 to put the plant back into operation. This dollar figure could change. It would take almost ten years to pay for itself at this rate. If the project is feasible, an engineering firm would be contracted to do the renovation work after we find money for the project. "We will be seeking money through loan sources, grants, and the state." said Mr. Culp. Last Minute Productions will present a Coffee House March 4th at 8:00 p.m. in the Cherokee Room of the U.C. Performing at this Coffee House will be Bill Melason. Admission will be 50c. The following night.
