Demolition, site work, new construction and renovation of a power facility in Searcy, Arkansas. Conceptual plans call for site work for a power facility; for the demolition of a power facility; for the construction of a power facility; and for the renovation of a power facility.

Bailey Substation serves as both the SEAPA delivery point into the KPU system, and the main diesel generation delivery point. It last saw substation work in the late-1990's when Bailey Genenerator No. 4 (BAG4) was installed in the adjoining Bailey Powerhouse; prior to that was the early 1980's when the 115kV Swan Lake transmission line was brought into the station. Scoping and design work will be highly dependent on a second SEAPA delivery point being brought online, without which cost estimates will be significantly greater due to the challenges associated with maintaining hydro imports to KPU while conducting work within Bailey Substation. Work is anticipated to include replacement of diesel generator transformers, grounding transformer, 34.5kV breakers, bus work, gang-switches, grounding, conductors, communications, oil containment, and fencing.
