Mountain Rhythm requests a

Commission order establishing either

that the project is not subject to the

CZMA consistency requirement or that

Ecology is conclusively presumed to

have concurred with Mountain

Rhythm’s certification of project

consistency based on the following

grounds:

1. The Boulder Creek Project is not

located within the state’s ‘‘coastal

zone,’’ as defined in the CZMA.6

2. The Project does not involve coastal

zone impacts.

3. Ecology has provided no

substantive objection to the content of

Mountain Rhythm’s certification of

project consistency and is therefore

conclusively presumed to have

concurred with the certification.

4. A permit is not ‘‘information or

data’’ and thus, Ecology’s requirement

that Mountain Rhythm obtain a state

shoreline permit as a prerequisite to the

agency’s concurrence with the

applicant’s certification is inconsistent

with the CZMA, the state regulations

implementing the act, and the

Commission’s licensing authority under

the Federal Power Act.

5. The project is consistent with the

intent and purpose of the Washington

Coastal Zone Management Program, and

is not prohibited by the state program.

Any person desiring to be heard or to

make any protest with reference to said

motion should file comments, a protest,

or a motion to intervene with the

Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory

Commission, 888 First Street, NE,

Washington, DC 20426, in accordance

with the requirements of the

Commission’s Rules of Practice and

Procedure (18 CFR 385.210, 385.211,

385.214). All such comments, protests,

and motions should be filed by [the 30th

day following publication of this notice

in the Federal Register] In determining

the appropriate action to take, the

Commission will consider all protests or

other comments filed, but only persons

that file a motion to intervene in

accordance with the Commission’s rules

may become a party to the proceeding.

Copies of the motion for declaratory

order are on file with the Commission

and are available for public inspection.

Acting Secretary.
