Agenda: During the meeting, the 

EAC’s Commissioners will lead

The full agenda will be posted in

election technologies that are not 

covered under the Voluntary Voting 

System Guidelines (VVSG), which 

includes electronic poll books, 

electronic ballot delivery systems, 

election night reporting systems, and 

voter registration systems. 

As outlined in HAVA, the Field 

Services Program is derived from the 

EAC Testing and Certification division’s 

Quality Monitoring Program, where the 

agency is positioned to assist states and 

local jurisdictions in the verification of 

EAC certified fielded systems on an 

ongoing basis. To best accomplish this, 

the program has a deployable, full-time 

staff of subject matter experts to 

proactively provide a combination of 

virtual and onsite services and training 

to help officials. 

Status: This meeting will be open to 

the public.

In accordance with the National

(Lakeport Project, or project). The 

project would be located on the 

Winnnipesaukee River in Belknap 

County, New Hampshire. Commission 

staff has prepared an Environmental 

Assessment (EA) for the project. 

The EA contains staff’s analysis of the 

potential environmental impacts of the 

project and concludes that licensing the 

project, with appropriate environmental 

protective measures, would not 

constitute a major federal action that 

would significantly affect the quality of 

the human environment.

interested persons with an opportunity 

to view and/or print the EA via the 

internet through the Commission’s

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 5:00 p.m. 

Eastern Time on March 28, 2025. 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,1 any person 2 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,3 and must be submitted by 

the protest deadline, which is March 28, 

2025. 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 4 and the regulations under 

the NGA 5 by the intervention deadline 

for the project, which is March 28, 2025. 

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
