DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Project No. 13685–000] 

Mr. Howard Rosenfeld; Notice of 

Preliminary Permit Application 

Accepted for Filing and Soliciting 

Comments, Motions To Intervene, and 

Competing Applications 

April 6, 2010. 

On March 22, 2010, Mr. Howard 

Rosenfeld filed an application, pursuant 

to section 4(f) of the Federal Power Act, 

for a preliminary permit to study the 

feasibility of the Warren Energy 

Independence Hydroelectic Project 

(Warren Project), to be located on 

Sucker Brook (a.k.a. Lake Waramaug 

Brook) in Litchfield County, 

Connecticut. 

Some of the features of the proposed 

Warren Project would be new and 

located on residential property owned 

by the applicant, and some of the 

project works would include properties 

owned by the Town of Warren, 

Connecticut, such as an existing dam, 

intake, and water conveyance 

structures. The proposed project would 

consist of: (1) An existing 80-foot-long, 

4-foot-wide, and 5-foot-high masonry 

dam; (2) an existing 48-inch square 

sluice gate structure feeding into; (3) a 

new 18-inch-diameter, approximately 

535-foot-long penstock leading to; (4) an 

existing 25-foot-high, 22-foot-square 

stone-masonry building to house; (5) a 

new turbine generator unit, with a 

maximum hydraulic capacity of 5 cubic 

feet per second (cfs) and total installed 

generating capacity of 10 kilowatts 

(kW); (6) a new approximately 400-footlong, 3.4 kilovolt (kV) transmission line, 

which would connect with the existing 

23 kV distribution line owned by 

Connecticut Power & Light and adjacent 

to the applicant’s property; and (7) 

appurtenant facilities. The Warren 

Project would have an estimated average 

annual generation of 50,000 kilowatthours (kWh), which would be used by 

the applicant on-site or distributed to 

the power grid and sold directly to a 

local utility.
