Commission 

[Project No. 13324–001] 

Cedar Creek Hydro, LLC; Notice of 

Preliminary Permit Application 

Accepted for Filing and Soliciting 

Comments, Motions To Intervene, and 

Competing Applications 

On April 2, 2011, Cedar Creek Hydro, 

LLC 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 

Cedar Creek Pumped Storage Project to 

be located in Briscoe, Armstrong, and 

Randall Counties, Texas. 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 pumped storage project 

would consist of: (1) A 60-foot-high, 

12,700-foot-long earth embankment 

upper dam; (2) an upper reservoir with 

a surface area of 283.0 acre and a storage 

capacity of 7,660 acre-feet; (3) a 28-footdiameter, 3,720-foot-long steel penstock; 

(4) a powerhouse/pumping station 

containing three pump/generating units 

with a total capacity of 660.0 megawatts; 

(5) a 140-foot-high, 1,600-foot-long earth 

embankment lower dam; (6) a lower 

reservoir with a surface area of 151 acres 

and a storage capacity of 8,550 acre-feet; 

and (7) a 26-mile-long, 240 kilo-volt 

(KV) transmission line. The project 

would have an estimated average annual 

generation of 1,816,000 megawatt-hours 

and the project power would be sold.

BOST3 Hydroelectric LLC; Notice of 

Proposed Restricted Service List for a 

Programmatic Agreement 

Rule 2010 of the Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission’s (Commission) 

Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 

section 385.2010, provides that, to 

eliminate unnecessary expense or 

improve administrative efficiency, the 

Secretary may establish a restricted 

service list for a particular phase or 

issue in a proceeding. The restricted 

service list should contain the names of 

persons on the service list who, in the 

judgment of the decisional authority 

establishing the list, are active 

participants with respect to the phase or 

issue in the proceeding for which the 

list is established. 

The Commission staff is consulting 

with the Louisiana State Historic 

Preservation Officer (Louisiana SHPO) 

and the Advisory Council on Historic 

Preservation (Advisory Council) 

pursuant to the Advisory Council’s 

regulations, 36 CFR part 800, 

implementing section 106 of the 

National Historic Preservation Act, as 

amended, (16 U.S.C. 470f), to prepare 

and execute a programmatic agreement 

for managing properties included in, or 

eligible for inclusion in, the National 

Register of Historic Places that could be 

affected by issuance of a license for the 

proposed Red River Lock & Dam No. 3 

Hydroelectric Project No. 12756. 

The programmatic agreement, when 

executed by the Commission and the 

Louisiana SHPO, would satisfy the 

Commission’s section 106 

responsibilities for all individual 

undertakings carried out in accordance 

with the license until the license expires 

or is terminated (36 CFR 800.13e). The 

Commission’s responsibilities pursuant 

to section 106 for the proposed project 

would be fulfilled through the 

programmatic agreement, which staff 

proposes to draft in consultation with 

certain parties listed below. 

BOST3 Hydroelectric LLC, as 

applicant for the proposed Red River 

Lock & Dam No. 3 Project No. 12756, is 

invited to participate in consultations to 

develop the programmatic agreement. 

For purposes of commenting on the 

programmatic agreement, staff proposes 

to restrict the service list for the 

aforementioned project as follows:
