Notice Announcing Preliminary Permit 

Drawing 

May 28, 2010. 

In the matter of: Three Rivers Park District, 

Project No. 13457–000, BOST1 Hydroelectric 

LLC, Project No. 13458–000. 

On May 1, 2009, at 8:30 a.m., the 

Commission received two preliminary 

permit applications for proposed 

projects to be located at the existing 

Coon Rapids Dam on the Mississippi 

River in Hennepin and Anoka Counties, 

Minnesota.1 The applications were filed 

by Three Rivers Park District, for Project 

No. 13457 and BOST1 Hydroelectric 

LLC, for Project No. 13458. 

Where all permit applicants are 

municipalities or all permit applicants 

are non-municipalities, and no 

applicant’s plans are better adapted than 

the others’ to develop, conserve, and 

utilize in the public interest the water 

resources of a region, the Commission 

issues a permit to the applicant who 

filed first in time.2 In this case, because 

two applications from entities not 

claiming municipal preference are 

deemed filed at the same time, the 

Commission will conduct a random tie 

breaker to determine priority. In the 

event that the Commission concludes 

that neither applicant’s plans are better 

adapted than the other, priority will be 

determined accordingly. 

On June 8, 2010, at 2 p.m. (eastern 

time), the Secretary of the Commission, 

or her designee, will, by random 

drawing, determine the filing priority 

for the two applicants identified in this 

notice. The drawing is open to the 

public and will be held in room 2C, the 

Commission Meeting Room, located at 

888 First St., NE., Washington, DC 

20426. The results of the drawing will 

be recorded by the Secretary or her 

designee. A subsequent notice will be 

issued by the Secretary announcing the 

results of the drawing.
