[Project No. 13573-000]


City of Hamilton; Notice of Competing Preliminary Permit 
Application Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments and Motions To 
Intervene

September 25, 2009.

    On August 31, 2009, the City of Hamilton, Ohio, filed an 
application for a preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the 
Federal Power Act, proposing to study the feasibility of the Greenup 
Hydrokinetic Project, located immediately downstream from the Greenup 
Lock and Dam on the Ohio River, in Scioto County, Ohio. 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) A 100 to 300-foot-long 
by 20 to 50-foot-wide barge anchored to the riverbed; (2) 10 6 to 8-
foot-diameter by 20-foot-long turbine-generators attached to the barge; 
(3) high-voltage cables transmitting the generated power to the 
existing transmission line located near the Project; and (4) 
appurtenant facilities. The proposed project would generate about 1,533 
megawatt-hours.

Hamilton, 345 High Street, Hamilton, Ohio 45011; phone: (513) 785-7229
