[Project No. 13160–002] 

Red River Hydro LLC; Notice of 

Application Tendered For Filing With 

the Commission and Establishing 

Procedural Schedule for Licensing and 

Deadline for Submission of Final 

Amendments 

Take notice that the following 

hydroelectric application has been filed 

with the Commission and is available 

for public inspection. 

a. Type of Application: New Major 

License. 

b. Project No.: 13160–002. 

c. Date Filed: July 29, 2011. 

d. Applicant: Red River Hydro LLC 

(Red River), a wholly-owned subsidiary 

of Symbiotics LLC. 

e. Name of Project: Overton Lock and 

Dam Hydroelectric Project. 

f. Location: The project would be 

located on the Red River in Rapides 

Parish, Louisiana at an existing lock and 

dam owned and operated by the U.S. 

Corps of Engineers (Corps). The project 

would occupy 42.5 acres of federal 

lands managed by the Corps. 

g. Filed Pursuant to: Federal Power 

Act, 16 USC 791(a)–825(r). 

h. Applicant Contact: Mr. Brent L. 

Smith, Chief Operating Officer, 

Symbiotics LLC 371 Upper Terrace, 

Suite 2, Bend, OR 97702; Telephone 

(541)-330–8779. 

i. FERC Contact: Lesley Kordella, 

(202) 502–6406 or 

Lesley.Kordella@ferc.gov. 

j. This application is not ready for 

environmental analysis at this time. 

k. The Project Description: The 

project would be located at an existing 

lock and dam owned and operated by 

the Corps-Vicksburg District. The 

existing lock and dam are part of the J. 

Bennett Johnston Waterway, which was 

authorized by Congress in 1968 to 

stabilize river banks, straighten river 

bends, and maintain a 9-foot-deep, 200- 

foot-wide channel for boat traffic. The 

waterway consists of five locks and 

dams and a number of cutoffs to shorten 

the river. 

The existing Overton dam is a 

concrete gravity structure that is 104 

feet in height and 914 feet in length. The 

spillway consists of five 60-foot-wide 

Tainter gates. The navigation lock is 84 

feet wide by 685 feet long. The purpose 

of the lock and dam system is 

navigation and not storage. The upper 

pool above the dam is commonly 

referred to as ‘‘Pool 2’’. The Corps 

maintains the upper pool at an elevation 

of 64 feet. Pool 2 has a surface area of 

approximately 3,750 acres and a storage 

capacity of approximately 67,500 acrefeet. 

The proposed Overton Lock and Dam 

Project would consist of: (1) A 

powerhouse located on the southwest 

bank of the river at the existing dam’s 

right abutment; (2) a headrace; (3) a 

tailrace; (4) a new switchyard; (5) 3.9 

miles of 138-kilovolt (kV) above-ground 

transmission line; (6) three turbinegenerator units for a combined installed 

capacity of 78 megawatts; and (7) 

appurtenant facilities. The projected 

annual energy generation would be 

255.7 gigawatt hours. 

The project would operate in a run-ofrelease mode utilizing releases from 

Pool 2 as they are dictated by the Corps, 

with no proposed change to the Corps’ 

facility operation. In addition, no 

changes to the reservoir pool elevations 

or downstream river flows are proposed. 

The project would generate power using 

flows between 2,700 cfs (cubic feet per 

second) and 49,800 cfs. If flows are less 

than 2,700 cfs, all flow would go 

through the Corps’ gates and the project 

would then be offline. When flows are 

greater than 49,800 cfs, the excess flow 

would be directed through the Corps 

gates. 

l. Locations of the Application: A 

copy of the application is available for 

review at the Commission in the Public 

Reference Room or may be viewed on 

the Commission’s Web site at http:// 

www.ferc.gov using the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link.
