needed for normal power production (air at atmospheric pressure, using veryconservative assumptions), virtually no air was lost through entrapmentduring plant operation. The lab study did find. that air loss was decreasedas drift tunnel length was increased. They recommend a drift tunnel lengthat least 5 to 6 times the diameter of the drift tunnel. The Crater Lakedrift tunnel substantially exceeds this length requirement.In conclusion, it is estimated that total monthly air leakage from theproposed air chamber wi 11 be approximately 5,000 ft 3 at a gage pressureof 850 ft.B4-21
