I can't find a figure for the discharge water temperature.  The intake 
water had to be less than 70 degrees which made the scheme feasible since 
the waters off New Hampshire never are warmer than 65 in the peak of 
summer.

Yes, there are two tunnels, an intake and a discharge 1 mile offshore.

That's only a summary. 850,000 gpm is a lot of water. At the time I went 
to an open house where the system was discussed in more detail but I'm not 
going to depend on 40+ year old memories. The plant was controversial to 
say the least.

The May Day '77 protest was the high point, where 1414 people were 
arrested. I liked Thomson but he may not have been thinking too clearly 
when he stuck the protesters in the National Guard armory and realized he 
had to buy a hell of a lot on McDonald's Happy Meals. Letting them starve 
wouldn't have been good PR and the protesters, while refusing bail, were 
too smart to call for a hunger strike.


I miss the ocean but NH started to drift left and I bailed in '88.
