Mill Town Power Project; Notice of Preliminary Permit Application 
Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To Intervene, and 
Competing Applications

    On January 4, 2011, Mill Town Power Project filed an application 
for a preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the Federal Power 
Act (FPA), proposing to study the feasibility of the Chagrin Spillway 
Hydroelectric Project (Chagrin Spillway Project or project) to be 
located on the Upper Main Branch of the Chagrin River, in the town of 
Chagrin Falls, in Cuyahoga County, Ohio. The sole purpose of a 
preliminary permit, if issued, is to grant the permit holder priority 
to file a license application during the permit term. A preliminary 
permit does not authorize the permit holder to perform any land-
disturbing activities or otherwise enter upon lands or waters owned by 
others without the owners' express permission.
    The proposed project would consist of the following: (1) An 
impoundment with a surface area of 0.2 acres at a maximum pool 
elevation of 940 feet mean sea level; (2) a 9.45-foot-high, 162-foot-
long earthen stone and reinforced concrete dam including a 91-foot-long 
spillway; (3) a new 10-foot-wide intake structure constructed directly 
upstream of the left side of the dam; (4) a new 75-foot-long, 48-inch-
diameter steel penstock leading from the intake structure to the 
turbine assembly; (5) a new 20-foot-long, 20-foot-wide powerhouse 
located downstream of the dam containing one S-Type tubular Kaplan 
turbine-generator unit with a capacity of 110 kilowatts; (6) a new 6-
foot-wide, 10-foot-long tailrace; (7) a new 480-volt, 800-foot-long 
transmission line connecting the powerhouse with a net metering 
station; and (8) appurtenant facilities. The estimated annual 
generation of the Chagrin Spillway Project would be 700 megawatt-hours 
at a head range of 14-17 feet.
