BILLING CODE 6717–01–P 

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket Nos. UL19–1–000; UL19–2–000] 

Central Hudson Gas & Electric 

Corporation; Notice of Availability of 

Navigability Report for the Walkill 

River, Request for Comments, and 

Notice of Pending Jurisdictional 

Inquiry 

On May 9, 2019, the Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission (Commission) 

received a request from the U.S. 

Department of the Interior’s Fish and 

Wildlife Service (FWS) for an updated 

jurisdictional determination for the 

unlicensed Sturgeon Pool and Dashville 

Hydroelectric Projects. The projects are 

located on the Wallkill River in Ulster 

County, New York. In response to 

FWS’s request, Commission staff is 

investigating the jurisdictional status of 

the Sturgeon Pool Hydroelectric Project 

(UL19–1–000) and Dashville 

Hydroelectric Project (UL19–2–000). 

Pursuant to section 23(b)(1) of the 

Federal Power Act (FPA), 16 U.S.C. 

817(1), a non-Federal hydroelectric 

project must be licensed (unless it has 

a still-valid pre-1920 Federal permit) if 

it: (a) is located on a navigable water of 

the United States; (b) occupies lands or 

reservations of the United States; (c) 

utilizes surplus water or waterpower 

from a government dam; or (d) is located 

on a stream over which Congress has 

Commerce Clause jurisdiction, is 

constructed or modified on or after 

August 26,1935, and affects the interests 

of interstate of foreign commerce. 

A stream is navigable under section 

3(8) of the FPA if: (1) it is currently 

being used or is suitable for use, or (2) 

it has been used or was suitable for use 

in the past, or (3) it could be made 

suitable for use in the future by 

reasonable improvements, to transport 

persons or property in interstate or 

foreign commerce. Navigability under 

section 3(8) of the FPA is not destroyed 

by obstructions or disuse of many years; 

personal or private use may be sufficient 

to demonstrate the availability of the 

river for commercial navigation; and the 

seasonal floatation of logs is sufficient to 

determine that a river is navigable. 

Commission staff previously 

investigated the Commission’s 

jurisdiction over the Sturgeon Pool and 

Dashville Hydroelectric Projects. In 

1988, staff determined that the projects 

were non-jurisdictional based on staff’s 

finding that the Wallkill River was not 

navigable at the location of the 

projects.1 Commission staff’s prior 

finding relied primarily on historical 

usage of the river. FWS requests that the 

Commission reexamine navigability of 

the Wallkill River and look specifically 

at the river’s suitability for commercial 

use. A stream’s suitability for 

commercial use can be demonstrated 

based on its physical characteristics, as 

well as its actual use or suitability for 

use for recreational boating, if this 

information shows the river is suitable 

for the simpler types of commercial 

navigation.2

As part of the current jurisdictional 

review, Commission staff prepared an 

updated navigability report for the 

Wallkill River. Before deciding on the 

jurisdictional status of the Sturgeon 

Pool and Dashville Hydroelectric 

Projects, the Commission will accept 

and consider comments on the 

navigability report. Comments may be 

filed no later January 22, 2024. 

This navigability report may be 

viewed on the web at http://

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