2024 Grand Coulee Dam Tour
September 13, 2024 @ 12:00 pm - 4:30 pm
Dear PES members and colleagues
The Seattle IEEE PES has arranged for a VIP tour of the Grand Coulee Dam complex with the USBR, United States Bureau of Reclamation on Friday Sept. 13, 12:00-4:30 PM. Registration for this event will be open on August 5th.
A VIP tour gets us into the powerhouse, generator and turbine area, transformer deck and the spillway at the top of the dam.
The invitation and registration information are below. Space is limited due to 24 for this tour and there is a registration fee.
There are very specific USBR, United States Bureau of Reclamation, security requirements for this tour. Unfortunately, this tour is for US citizens only. This is due to the time it takes, 4-6 weeks to perform background checks on non-US residents. Once you have registered you will need to provide a scanned copy of your photo ID at least a week in advance so the USBR can perform a background check. An email address and contact information for the USBR will be provided to those that are registered so they can complete the security check requirements.
