Southern California Edison (SCE) is continuing data collection as part of the study implementation phase of the relicensing process for the Kern River No. 3 (KR3) Hydroelectric Project (P-2290). Please use this page to find out how to get involved and stay up to date. Note, use this updated link to access the North Fork Kern River Preliminary Flow Information Website.

To receive timely and direct communication from FERC regarding all filings associated with the KR3 Project (Docket No. P-2290), follow the directions to register for an “eSubscription” at https://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/esubscription.asp.

As outlined in the resource study plans (refer to the Relicensing Document section below for more information), SCE is seeking public participation to gather additional information related to recreation use in the Project area. Please use the link below to access the enhanced flow boating sign up. Thank you in advance for your participation.  

SCE is planning to provide enhanced flow opportunities (approximately between 200-800 cfs) to address knowledge gaps in boating flows for the respective river segments in the North Fork Kern River (NFKR) bypass reach. The enhanced flow opportunities are contingent on the run-off patterns on the NFKR and current FERC License whitewater boating flow requirements. This is the first opportunity to provide enhanced flow opportunities and collect data. Additional opportunities on the descending limb will be scheduled if needed. SCE is proposing the following dates to provide enhanced flow opportunities.

*Dates may be rescheduled due to changes in the inflow.
