Public Participation 

There are three ways to become 

involved in the Commission’s review of 

this project: you can file a protest to the 

project, you can file a motion to 

intervene in the proceeding, and you 

can file comments on the project. There 

is no fee or cost for filing protests, 

motions to intervene, or comments. The 

deadline for filing protests, motions to 

intervene, and comments is 5 p.m. 

Eastern Time on December 2, 2024. How 

to file protests, motions to intervene, 

and comments is explained below. 

The Commission’s Office of Public 

Participation (OPP) supports meaningful 

public engagement and participation in 

Commission proceedings. OPP can help 

members of the public, including 

landowners, environmental justice 

communities, Tribal members and 

others, access publicly available 

information and navigate Commission 

processes. For public inquiries and 

assistance with making filings such as 

interventions, comments, or requests for 

rehearing, the public is encouraged to 

contact OPP at (202) 502–6595 or OPP@

ferc.gov. 

Protests 

Pursuant to section 157.205 of the 

Commission’s regulations under the 

NGA,2 any person 3 or the Commission’s 

staff may file a protest to the request. If 

no protest is filed within the time 

allowed or if a protest is filed and then 

withdrawn within 30 days after the 

allowed time for filing a protest, the 

proposed activity shall be deemed to be 

authorized effective the day after the 

time allowed for protest. If a protest is 

filed and not withdrawn within 30 days 

after the time allowed for filing a 

protest, the instant request for 

authorization will be considered by the 

Commission. 

Protests must comply with the 

requirements specified in section 

157.205(e) of the Commission’s 

regulations,4 and must be submitted by 

the protest deadline, which is November 

30, 2024. A protest may also serve as a 

motion to intervene so long as the 

protestor states it also seeks to be an 

intervenor. 

Interventions 

Any person has the option to file a 

motion to intervene in this proceeding. 

Only intervenors have the right to 

request rehearing of Commission orders 

issued in this proceeding and to 

subsequently challenge the 

Commission’s orders in the U.S. Circuit 

Courts of Appeal. 

To intervene, you must submit a 

motion to intervene to the Commission 

in accordance with Rule 214 of the 

Commission’s Rules of Practice and 

Procedure 5 and the regulations under 

the NGA 6 by the intervention deadline 

for the project, which is November 30, 

2024. As described further in Rule 214, 

your motion to intervene must state, to 

the extent known, your position 

regarding the proceeding, as well as 

your interest in the proceeding. For an 

individual, this could include your 

status as a landowner, ratepayer, 

resident of an impacted community, or 

recreationist. You do not need to have 

property directly impacted by the 

project in order to intervene. For more 

information about motions to intervene, 

refer to the FERC website at https://

www.ferc.gov/resources/guides/how-to/ 

intervene.asp. 

All timely, unopposed motions to 

intervene are automatically granted by 

operation of Rule 214(c)(1). Motions to 

intervene that are filed after the 

intervention deadline are untimely and 

may be denied. Any late-filed motion to 

intervene must show good cause for 

being late and must explain why the 

time limitation should be waived and 

provide justification by reference to 

factors set forth in Rule 214(d) of the 

Commission’s Rules and Regulations. A 

person obtaining party status will be 

placed on the service list maintained by 

the Secretary of the Commission and 

will receive copies (paper or electronic) 

of all documents filed by the applicant 

and by all other parties. 

Comments 

Any person wishing to comment on 

the project may do so. The Commission 

considers all comments received about 

the project in determining the 

appropriate action to be taken. To 

ensure that your comments are timely 

and properly recorded, please submit 

your comments on or before November 

30, 2024. The filing of a comment alone 

will not serve to make the filer a party 

to the proceeding. To become a party, 

you must intervene in the proceeding. 

How To File Protests, Interventions, 

and Comments 

There are two ways to submit 

protests, motions to intervene, and 

comments. In both instances, please 

reference the Project docket number 

CP24–520–000 in your submission.

Missisquoi, LLC; Notice of

The license for the Sheldon Springs

issued for a period ending September 

30, 2024. 

Section 15(a)(1) of the FPA, 16 U.S.C. 

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

the expiration of a license term, to issue 

from year-to-year an annual license to 

the then licensee(s) under the terms and 

conditions of the prior license until a 

new license is issued, or the project is 

otherwise disposed of as provided in 

section 15 or any other applicable 

section of the FPA. If the project’s prior 

license waived the applicability of 

section 15 of the FPA, then, based on 

section 9(b) of the Administrative 

Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. 558(c), and as 

set forth at 18 CFR 16.21(a), if the 

licensee of such project has filed an 

application for a subsequent license, the 

licensee may continue to operate the 

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 

license for the project or otherwise 

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. 7186 

is issued to Missisquoi, LLC for a period 

effective October 1, 2024, through 

September 30, 2025, or until the 

issuance of a new license for the project 

or other disposition under the FPA, 

whichever comes first. 

If issuance of a new license (or other 

disposition) does not take place on or 

before September 30, 2025, 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 Missisquoi, LLC is authorized to 

continue operation of the Sheldon 

Springs 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.
