On January 20, 2023, and April 18, 

2023, PacifiCorp, the project’s licensee, 

requested Commission approval to 

undertake certain construction, 

modification, and removal activities that 

have the potential to adversely affect 

properties included in, or eligible for 

inclusion in, the National Register of 

Historic Places. Thereafter, Commission 

staff determined that a Programmatic 

Agreement should be executed to ensure 

compliance with section 106 of the 

National Historic Preservation Act.2

On November 2, 2023, the 

Commission and the Utah SHPO 

executed the Programmatic Agreement. 

PacifiCorp was invited to concur in the 

agreement and did so on November 14, 

2023. The Programmatic Agreement 

requires PacifiCorp to continue to 

implement the Historic Properties 

Management Plan approved in Article 

407 of the project’s license.3 Pursuant to 

section 6 of the Federal Power Act,4 the 

Commission is providing notice that it 

plans to issue an order amending the 

license to incorporate the executed 

Programmatic Agreement. Unless and 

until the Commission issues an order 

incorporating the Programmatic 

Agreement into the license, the 

agreement has no independent legal 

effect. 

The executed Programmatic 

Agreement may be viewed on the 

Commission’s website at http://

Commission 

[Project No. 5698–022] 

Triton Power Company; Notice 

Soliciting Applications 

On December 31, 2020, Triton Power 

Company, licensee for the Chateaugay 

High Falls Hydroelectric Project No. 

5698 (project), filed a Notice of Intent 

(NOI) to file an application for a new 

license for the project pursuant to 

section 15(b)(1) of the Federal Power 

Act (FPA).1 On February 26, 2021, 

Commission staff issued public notice of 

the NOI and approved the use of the 

traditional licensing process to develop 

the license application. The current 

license for the project expires on 

December 31, 2025.2

The 1,710-kilowatt (kW) project is 

located on the Chateaugay River in 

Franklin County, New York. The project 

consists of: (1) an 82-foot-long, 56-foothigh concrete and masonry dam; (2) an 

intake structure equipped with a 

trashrack with 1-inch clear bar spacing 

and a 9-foot-wide, 9-foot-high sluice 

gate, located approximately 130 feet 

upstream of the dam; (3) an 

impoundment with a surface area of 2.9 

acres at an elevation of 962.7 feet mean 

sea level; (4) a 6-foot-diameter, 480-footlong steel penstock; (5) a 50-foot-wide, 

40-foot-long concrete powerhouse 

containing a 1,260-kW turbine-generator 

unit and a 450-kW turbine-generator 

unit; (6) a tailrace; (7) a 1,020-foot-long, 

4.16-kilovolt transmission line; and (8) 

appurtenant facilities. From 2010, 

through 2019, the project had an average 

annual energy production of 6,751 

megawatt-hours. 

Pursuant to section 15(c)(1) of the 

FPA 3 and section 16.9 of the 

Commission’s regulations,4 an existing 

licensee must file an application for a 

new license at least 24 months prior to 

the expiration of the current license. As 

stated above, Triton Power Company’s 

NOI indicated that it would file an 

application for a new license; however, 

it did not file an application for a new 

license for the project by the December 

31, 2023 deadline. 

Therefore, pursuant to section 

16.25(a) of the Commission’s 

regulations, we are soliciting 

applications from potential applicants 

other than the existing licensee.5

Interested parties have 90 days from the 

date of this notice to file a NOI to file 

an application for a new license. An 

application for a new license for the 

project may be filed within 18 months 

of the date of filing the NOI. The 

existing licensee is prohibited from 

filing an application either individually 

or in combination with other entities.6

Questions concerning this notice 

should be directed to Arash Barsari at
