Notice of Preliminary Permit 

Application Accepted for Filing and 

Soliciting Comments, Motions To 

Intervene, and Competing Applications 

On February 1, 2011, FFP Project 44 

LLC filed an application, pursuant to 

section 4(f) of the Federal Power Act, 

proposing to study the feasibility of 

hydropower on the Mississippi River, in 

Lauderdale County, Tennessee and in 

Mississippi County, Arkansas. 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 Bar Field Bend 

hydrokinetic project would consist of 

the following: (1) Up to 4,700 

SmarTurbine generating units installed 

in arrays on the bottom of the river; (2) 

the total capacity of the installation 

would be up to 188,000 kilowatts; (3) 

flexible cables would convey each 

arrays power to a metering station; and 

(4) a transmission line would 

interconnect with the power grid. The 

proposed project would have an average 

annual generation of 411,720,000 

kilowatt-hours (kWh), which would be 

sold to a local utility.
