McGinnis, Inc.; Notice of Preliminary Permit Application Accepted 
for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To Intervene, and Competing 
Applications

August 7, 2009.
    On April 29, 2009, McGinnis, Inc. filed an application, pursuant to 
section 4(f) of the Federal Power Act, proposing to study the 
feasibility of the Belleville Hydrokinetic Project, to be located on 
the Ohio River, in Meigs County, Ohio and Wood County, West Virginia.
    The proposed Belleville Project would be located approximately 500 
feet downstream of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Belleville Lock and 
Dam. The proposed project would consist of: (1) Ten turbine generators, 
with a total installed capacity of 350 kilowatts, mounted to a single 
barge attached to the riverbed; (2) an armored submarine cable to 
transmit power generated to a metering station and transformer on shore 
at the east side of the Belleville Dam; (3) a new approximately 1,250-
foot-long, 13.2 kilovolt transmission line, which would extend from an 
existing substation to interconnect with the grid at the existing 
hydropower facility at the Belleville Dam; and (4) appurtenant 
facilities. The Belleville Project would have an estimated average 
annual generation of 1533 megawatts-hours, which would be distributed 
to the power grid or sold directly to industrial, commercial, or 
municipal users.
