Georgia Power today successfully placed the basemat structural concrete for the nuclear island at the Vogtle Unit 4 nuclear expansion site near Waynesboro, Ga. The basemat concrete placement was completed in just under 41 hours and encompassed approximately 7,000 cubic yards of concrete, which will serve as the foundation for all of the nuclear island structures.

Glen Canyon Dam, near Page, Arizona, was built primarily as a Colorado River water storage facility but also generates power. It is operated by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation. The Glen Canyon Powerplant (1964) consists of eight generators, driven by eight 155,500-horsepower turbines. Total nameplate generating capacity for the powerplant is 1,296,000 kilowatts. Eight penstocks through the dam convey water to the Francis turbines.

The 995-megawatt Cholla Power Plant is located in northeastern Arizona near Holbrook. APS operates the plant and owns Units 1, 2 and 3, which are capable of producing 615 megawatts of electricity. PacifiCorp (PAC) owns the 380-megawatt Unit 4 – the largest unit at the plant. The two utilities participate in a seasonal power exchange in which PAC customers in the Pacific Northwest receive electricity from the APS system in the winter when their electricity demands are high and APS receives PAC power in the summer, during APS’ peak demand.

Cholla is fueled by coal from the McKinley Mine in New Mexico.
