74702 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 230 / Wednesday, December 1, 2010 / Notices 

conducted in Docket No. CP11–24–000, 

as noted in the caption of this Notice. 

Pursuant to section 157.9 of the 

Commission’s regulations, 18 CFR 

157.9, within 90 days of this Notice, the 

Commission’s staff will either complete 

its environmental assessment (EA) and 

place it into the Commission’s public 

record (eLibrary) for this proceeding; or 

issue a Notice of Schedule for 

Environmental Review. If a Notice of 

Schedule for Environmental Review is 

issued, it will indicate, among other 

milestones, the anticipated date for the 

Commission’s staff issuance of the EA 

for this proposal. The filing of the EA 

in the Commission’s public record for 

this proceeding or the issuance of a 

Notice of Schedule for Environmental 

Review will serve to notify federal and 

state agencies of the timing for the 

completion of all necessary reviews, and 

the subsequent need to reach a final 

decision on a request for federal 

authorization within 90 days of the date 

of issuance of the Commission staff’s 

EA. 

There are two ways to become 

involved in the Commission’s review of 

this project. First, any person wishing to 

obtain legal status by becoming a party 

to the proceedings for this project 

should, on or before the comment date 

stated below, file with the Federal 

Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 

First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, 

a motion to intervene in accordance 

with the requirements of the 

Commission’s Rules of Practice and 

Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211) 

and the Regulations under the NGA (18 

CFR 157.10). A person obtaining party 

status will be placed on the service list 

maintained by the Secretary of the 

Commission and will receive copies of 

all documents filed by the applicant and 

by all other parties. A party must submit 

14 copies of filings made with the 

Commission and must mail a copy to 

the applicant and to every other party in 

the proceeding. Only parties to the 

proceeding can ask for court review of 

Commission orders in the proceeding. 

However, a person does not have to 

intervene in order to have comments 

considered. The second way to 

participate is by filing with the 

Secretary of the Commission, as soon as 

possible, an original and two copies of 

comments in support of or in opposition 

to this project. The Commission will 

consider these comments in 

determining the appropriate action to be 

taken, but the filing of a comment alone 

will not serve to make the filer a party 

to the proceeding. The Commission’s 

rules require that persons filing 

comments in opposition to the project 

provide copies of their protests only to 

the party or parties directly involved in 

the protest. 

Persons who wish to comment only 

on the environmental review of this 

project should submit an original and 

two copies of their comments to the 

Secretary of the Commission. 

Environmental commenters will be 

placed on the Commission’s 

environmental mailing list, will receive 

copies of the environmental documents, 

and will be notified of meetings 

associated with the Commission’s 

environmental review process. 

Environmental commenters will not be 

required to serve copies of filed 

documents on all other parties. 

However, the non-party commenters 

will not receive copies of all documents 

filed by other parties or issued by the 

Commission (except for the mailing of 

environmental documents issued by the 

Commission) and will not have the right 

to seek court review of the 

Commission’s final order. 

The Commission strongly encourages 

electronic filings of comments, protests 

and interventions in lieu of paper using 

the ‘‘eFiling’’ link at http://www.ferc.gov. 

Persons unable to file electronically 

should submit an original and 14 copies 

of the protest or intervention to the 

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 

888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 

20426. See, 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1) (iii) 

and the instructions on the 

Commission’s web site under the ‘‘eFiling’’ link.

City of Whittier; Notice of Preliminary 

Permit Application Accepted for Filing 

and Soliciting Comments, Motions To 

Intervene, and Competing Applications 

November 23, 2010. 

On September 1, 2010, and 

supplemented on November 9, 2010, the 

City of Whittier 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 Whittier Creek Hydroelectric 

Project (Whittier Creek project) to be 

located on Whittier Creek, in the 

Valdez-Cordova Borough, Alaska. 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 will consist of 

the following: (1) An approximately 

100-foot-long, 20-foot-high reinforced 

concrete dam; (2) a 0.5-acre reservoir 

with a storage capacity of 10 acre-feet; 

(3) a 2,280-foot-long, 0.83-foot-diameter 

high density polyethylene penstock; 

(4) a 30-foot-long, 25-foot-wide 

powerhouse containing a 250-kilowatt 

turbine/generator unit; (5) a 100-footlong, 5-foot-diameter steel tailrace; (6) 

an approximately 1,000-foot-long 

transmission line with an anticipated 

voltage between 4 kilovolts (kV) and 69 

kV, connecting the proposed 

powerhouse to an existing switchyard; 

and (7) appurtenant facilities. The 

estimated annual generation of the 

Whittier Creek project would be 1,750 

megawatt-hours.
