Crisp County Power Commission
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In 1925, after an amendment was made to the Georgian constitution, the Crisp County Power Commission (CCPC) was established. The amendment was the result of a petition made by a group of residents from Crisp County to develop a hydroelectric power system along the Flint River. Georgia government officials decided to build a power-dam in order to satisfy the Crisp County resident's request.[1] The Crisp County Hydroelectric Power Dam, proposed by CCPC, was the first power-dam in the United States to be owned, built and operated by a county.[2]
