[Project No. 14202–000] 

FFP Project 70, LLC; Notice of 

Preliminary Permit Application 

Accepted for Filing and Soliciting 

Comments, Motions To Intervene, and 

Competing Applications 

On May 13, 2011, Free Flow Power 

Project 70, LLC 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 Mississippi Lock and Dam #19 

Water Power Project (Mississippi Lock 

and Dam #19 Project or project) to be 

located at the abandoned lock and dry 

dock area of the Army Corp of 

Engineer’s (Corps) Mississippi Lock and 

Dam #19 on the Mississippi River, near 

Keokuk, Lee County, Iowa and Hancock 

County, Illinois. 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 existing dam is composed of four 

sections: the dam, an existing hydro 

powerhouse, an abandoned navigational 

lock at which the project is proposed, 

and an operational navigational lock. 

The dam and powerhouse are owned 

and operated by Ameren UE, and the 

two lock structures are owned and 

operated by the Corps. 

The proposed project would consist of 

the following: (1) A 370-foot-wide, 660- 

foot-long new approach channel; (2) a 

500-foot-long new guide wall to separate 

barge traffic going into the existing 

operational lock and direct water flow 

into the powerhouse; (3) an 

undetermined length of new retaining 

wall constructed along the eastern edge 

of the approach channel; (4) a 200-footwide, 250-foot-long new reinforced 

concrete powerhouse containing three 

new turbine-generators, each rated at 17 

megawatts; (5) a 520-foot-wide, 1,100 

foot-long new tailrace channel; (6) a 

discharge retaining wall of 

undetermined length constructed along 

the existing operational lock to protect 

the lock foundation against scour and 

undermining; (7) a 60-foot-wide, 75- 

foot-long new substation containing a 

step-up transformer and high-side and 

low-side disconnects; (8) a 900-footlong, 161-kilovolt (kV) transmission line 

connecting the substation to Ameren 

UE’s existing infrastructure; and (9) 

appurtenant facilities. The estimated 

annual generation of the Mississippi 

Lock and Dam #19 Water Power Project 

would be 200 gigawatt-hours.
