use of NOAA’s navigation, observations, 

and positioning data, science, products, 

and services for the National Ocean 

Service’s Center for Operational 

Oceanographic Products and Services, 

National Geodetic Survey, and Office of 

Coast Survey, and the NOAA/University 

of New Hampshire Joint Hydrographic 

Center. Public comments sent in 

advance of the HSRP public meeting 

will be shared with the HSRP members, 

posted on the meeting website, and 

included in the public record for the 

meeting. Individuals and groups may 

also submit public comments during the 

scheduled daily public comment 

periods during the meeting or through 

the webinar’s ‘‘Questions’’ function. 

These public comments will be read

may be invited to orally expand on their 

written comments during the meeting’s 

public comment periods. Due to time 

constraints, all public comments may 

not be addressed orally during the 

meeting. 

Matters To Be Considered: 

The HSRP members will focus on the 

issues relevant to NOAA’s navigation, 

observations, and positioning services, 

and the value these services bring the 

Nation, and invite suggestions from 

stakeholders and partners for 

improvements to these services. This 

suite of NOAA services supports safe 

and efficient navigation, the Blue 

Economy, resilient coasts and 

communities, and the nationwide 

positioning information infrastructure to 

support America’s climate needs and 

commerce. Specifically, the HSRP will 

consider: 

• National Ocean Service programs’ 

recent activities, such as updates to the 

National Spatial Reference System, 

datums, national ocean and coastal 

mapping goals, hydrographic surveying, 

nautical charting, uncrewed systems, 

coastal remote sensing and bathymetric 

lidar, photogrammetry, positioning, sea 

level rise, and water levels in support of 

‘‘seamless data.’’ 

• The status of NOAA’s navigation 

services in the context of recent 

legislation. 

• Measuring, monitoring, and 

mitigating flooding and sea level change 

and the contribution of NOAA’s critical 

foundational geospatial data to projects. 

• NOAA navigation data, products, 

and services that enable further 

economic growth and impact safe 

navigation. 

• Other topics related to NOAA 

programs and activities, such as 

bathymetric and coastal/ocean 

modeling, tide and current observations, 

resilience and coastal data and 

information systems to support 

planning for climate change in ports and 

coastal communities, flooding/ 

inundation, contributions to the Blue 

Economy, Physical Oceanographic RealTime System (PORTS®) sensor 

enhancements and expansion, Precision 

Marine Navigation, the transition from 

raster paper charts to Electronic 

Navigational Charts, geodetic 

observations, gravity modeling, data 

stewardship, education and training to 

sustain the workforce necessary for 

NOAA navigation services missions, 

and scientific mapping and technology 

research projects tied to cooperative 

agreements between NOAA and other 

partners. 

Special Accommodations: 

This public meeting is accessible to 

people with disabilities and there will 

be sign language interpretation and 

captioning services. Please direct 

requests for other auxiliary aids to

Permit Application Accepted for Filing 

and Soliciting Comments, Motions To 

Intervene, and Competing Applications 

On November 27, 2024, NOW NE005 

LLC, filed an application for a 

preliminary permit, pursuant to section 

4(f) of the Federal Power Act (FPA), 

proposing to study the feasibility of the 

Champlain Canal-Hudson River-Lock 

and Dam C1 Hydroelectric Project (Lock 

and Dam C1 Project) on the Champlain 

Canal, Hudson River in Saratoga and 

Rensselaer Counties, New York. 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 Lock and Dam C1 

Project would consist of the following: 

(1) an existing 1,025-foot-long and 15- 

foot-high ogee-shaped concrete gravity 

dam, with a 356-foot-long tainter-gated 

section; (2) an existing impoundment 

having a surface area of 400 acres and 

a storage capacity of 5,000 acre-feet at a 

water surface elevation of 28.3 feet 

National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 

1929; (3) an existing 45-foot-wide by 

338-foot-long lock; (4) a new 97-footwide and 170-foot-long reinforced 

concrete powerhouse with two new 

identical turbine-generator units with an 

installed capacity of 5,100 kilowatts 

each; (5) a new substation, 75 feet by 60 

feet; (6) a new 34.5-kilovolt, 

approximately 1.9-mile-long 

transmission line; and (7) appurtenant 

facilities. The proposed project would 

have an annual generation of 39.79 

gigawatt-hours.
