may affect the responsibilities of a 

particular resource agency, they must 

also serve a copy of the document on 

that resource agency. 

k. This application has been accepted 

for filing and is now ready for 

environmental analysis. 

l. Project Description: The proposed 

project would utilize water diverted 

from the Snake River at an existing 

diversion dam located 10 miles 

upstream of Idaho Falls. Currently the 

diversion dam diverts irrigation water 

for agricultural purposes into the 

existing Idaho Canal on the east side of 

the river and Great Western Canal on 

the west side of the river. Under the 

proposed project, the Districts would 

enlarge the canals by raising the banks 

of each by an additional 1 to 3 feet to 

increase their capacity and then divert 

up to 1,000 cubic feet per second (cfs) 

of additional flow into each canal for 

power generation. On the east side of 

the Snake River, flows for power 

generation would be diverted into the 

Idaho Canal and conveyed about 3.1 

miles to a new East Side Powerhouse 

and then discharged back to the Snake 

River. On the west side of the Snake 

River, flows for power generation would 

be diverted into the Great Western Canal 

and conveyed about 3.5 miles to a new 

West Side Powerhouse and then 

discharged back to the Snake River. The 

Districts propose to maintain a 1,000-cfs 

minimum flow in the 3.5-mile-long 

segment of the Snake River bypassed by 

the project whenever the project is 

operating. The total capacity of both 

powerhouses would be 2.5 megawatts 

(MW), with a 1.2–MW capacity for the 

single Kaplan turbine in the East Side 

Powerhouse and a 1.3–MW capacity for 

the single Kaplan turbine in the West 

Side Powerhouse. The average annual 

generation is expected to be 18.3 

gigawatt-hours. The project would also 

include two new 12.5-kilovolt 

transmission lines, extending 2,500 feet 

and 400 feet from the East Side and 

West Side Powerhouses, respectively, to 

the interconnection points with the 

existing electrical distribution system. 

m. The Commission provides all 

interested persons with an opportunity

Notice of Authorization for Continued 

Project Operation 

On June 28, 2019, Erie Boulevard 

Hydropower, L.P., licensee for the Oak 

Orchard Hydroelectric Project No. 3452, 

filed an Application for a Subsequent 

License pursuant to the Federal Power 

Act (FPA) and the Commission’s 

regulations thereunder. The Oak 

Orchard Hydroelectric Project is located 

adjacent to the New York State Canal 

Corporation’s Barge Canal in the Village 

of Medina, Orleans County, New York. 

The license for Project No. 3452 was 

issued for a period ending June 30, 

2021. 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. 3452 

is issued to Erie Boulevard Hydropower, 

L.P. for a period effective July 1, 2021 

through June 30, 2022 or until the 

issuance of a new license for the project
