Commission 

[Project No. 6440–010] 

Lakeport Hydroelectric One, LLC and 

New Hampshire Department of 

Environmental Services; Notice of 

Intent To Prepare an Environmental 

Assessment 

On August 30, 2021, Lakeport 

Hydroelectric One, LLC (Lakeport) and 

New Hampshire Department of 

Environmental Services (New 

Hampshire DES) filed a relicense 

application for the 600-kilowatt 

Lakeport Hydroelectric Project No. 6440 

(project). The project is located on the 

Winnipesaukee River in Laconia, 

Belknap County, New Hampshire. 

In accordance with the Commission’s 

regulations, on November 14, 2023, 

Commission staff issued a notice that 

the project was ready for environmental 

analysis (REA Notice). Based on the 

information in the record, including 

comments filed on the REA Notice, staff 

does not anticipate that licensing the 

project would constitute a major federal 

action significantly affecting the quality 

of the human environment. Therefore, 

staff intends to prepare an 

Environmental Assessment (EA) on the 

application to relicense the project. 

The EA will be issued and circulated 

for review by all interested parties. All 

comments filed on the EA will be 

analyzed by staff and considered in the 

Commission’s final licensing decision.

Participation (OPP) supports meaningful
