808(a)(1), requires the Commission, at 

the expiration of a license term, to issue

otherwise disposed of as provided in 

section 15 or any other applicable 

section of the FPA. If the project’s prior

project in accordance with the terms 

and conditions of the license after the 

minor or minor part license expires, 

until the Commission acts on its 

application. If the licensee of such a 

project has not filed an application for 

a subsequent license, then it may be 

required, pursuant to 18 CFR 16.21(b), 

to continue project operations until the 

Commission issues someone else a

orders disposition of the project. 

If the project is subject to section 15 

of the FPA, notice is hereby given that 

an annual license for Project No. 2639

Company for a period effective 

December 1, 2023, through November 

30, 2024, or until the issuance of a new 

license for the project or other 

disposition under the FPA, whichever

place on or before November 30, 2024, 

notice is hereby given that, pursuant to 

18 CFR 16.18(c), an annual license 

under section 15(a)(1) of the FPA is 

renewed automatically without further 

order or notice by the Commission, 

unless the Commission orders 

otherwise. 

If the project is not subject to section 

15 of the FPA, notice is hereby given 

that Northern States Power Company is 

authorized to continue operation of the 

Cornell Hydroelectric Project under the 

terms and conditions of the prior license 

until the issuance of a subsequent 

license for the project or other 

disposition under the FPA, whichever 

comes first.
