On July 6, 2009, the City of Morgan 

City, Louisiana 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 Wax Lake Outlet Project to be 

located on the Wax Lake Outlet in St. 

Mary Parish, Louisiana. 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 would consist 

of: (1) 25 proposed 200 kilowatt 

Underwater Electric Kite generating 

units having a total installed capacity of 

5 megawatts; (2) a 1-mile-long, 138 

kilovolt transmission line; and (3) 

appurtenant facilities. The proposed 

Wax Lake Outlet Project would have an 

average annual generation of 43.8 

gigawatt-hours.
