[Project No. 15352–000] 

Kram Hydro 5, LLC; Notice of 

Preliminary Permit Application 

Accepted for Filing and Soliciting 

Comments, Motions To Intervene, and 

Competing Applications 

On April 26, 2024, Kram Hydro 5, 

LLC filed an application for a 

preliminary permit, pursuant to section 

4(f) of the Federal Power Act, proposing 

to study the feasibility of a hydropower 

project proposed to be located at the 

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ (Corps) 

Mississippi River Lock and Dam 5A 

near Winona County, MN, and Buffalo 

County, WI. The sole purpose of a 

preliminary permit, if issued, is to grant 

the permit holder priority to file a 

license application during the permit 

term. A preliminary permit does not 

authorize the permit holder to perform 

any land-disturbing activities or 

otherwise enter upon lands or waters 

owned by others without the owners’ 

express permission. 

The proposed Mississippi River Lock 

and Dam 5A Hydroelectric Project 

would consist of the following: (1) a 

proposed intake channel approximately 

200 to 350 feet long and 90 feet wide 

located near the west bank of the 

existing Corps’ dam; (2) a proposed 100- 

foot-long, 180-foot-wide reinforced 

concrete powerhouse, located 

downstream of the existing Corps’ dam, 

containing two Kaplan pit turbinegenerators with a total capacity of 14.0 

megawatts; (4) a new 200-foot-long, 100- 

foot-wide unlined tailrace channel with 

stone riprap and a new 300-foot-long 

concrete retaining wall downstream of 

the powerhouse; and (5) a proposed 

transmission line approximately 1,000 

foot from the project site connecting the 

substation to the grid. The proposed 

project would have an estimated annual 

generation of 73,500 megawatt-hours.
