                     Hydro Friends Fund XXXVIII, FFP Missouri 12, LLC, Allegheny 2 Hydro, LLC, and Three Rivers Hydro, LLC, filed an application, pursuant to section 4(f) of the Federal Power Act, proposing to study the feasibility of hydropower at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Allegheny Lock and Dam 2 on the Allegheny River near the town of Sharpsburg, in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. The sole purpose of a preliminary permit, if issued, is to grant 
                    ( print page 78235)
                    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. Descriptions of the proposed Allegheny River Lock and Dam 2 Projects: Lock+TM
                     Hydro Friends Fund XXXVIII's proposed project (Project No. 13744-000) would consist of: (1) One lock frame module 109 feet long, 40 feet high, and weighing 1.16 million pounds each, and containing 10 generating units with a total combined capacity of 10 megawatts (MW); (2) a 63-foot-high, 75-foot-long prefabricated concrete wall attached to pilings in the river to support the lock frame module; (3) a 25-foot-long, 50-foot-wide switchyard containing a transformer; and (4) a 9,000-foot-long, 69-kilovolt (kV) transmission line to an existing substation. The proposed project would have an average annual generation of 43.83 gigawatt-hours (GWh), which would be sold to a local utility. Applicant Contact: Mr. Mark R.
