DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Project No. 3240–000] 

Briar Hydro Associates; Notice of 

Authorization for Continued Project 

Operation 

The license for the Rolfe Canal 

Hydroelectric Project No. 3240 was 

issued for a period ending November 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. 3240 

is issued to Briar Hydro Associates for 

a period effective December 1, 2024, 

through November 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 November 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 Briar Hydro Associates is 

authorized to continue operation of the 

Rolfe Canal 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. 

Dated: December 19, 2024.
