Geysers Power Company, LLC (GPC) proposes to use Department of Energy and cost share funding to develop and demonstrate geothermal resource at the Caldwell Ranch in Sonoma County, California. GPC proposes to re-enter plug and abandoned wells Prati 5, Prati 14, Prati 38 1999-2000 and deepen the wells further into the geothermal resource. Workover operations would be restricted to existing well pads and roads to prevent any new surface disturbing activities.
