Current Connection, LLC; Notice of Preliminary Permit Application 
Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To Intervene, and 
Competing Applications

May 11, 2010.
    On March 30, 2010, Current Connection, LLC filed an application for 
a preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the Federal Power 
Act, proposing to study the feasibility of the St. Clair Hydrokinetic 
Project, located on the St. Clair River, in St. Clair County, Michigan. 
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 project would consist of: (1) The installation of 396 
turbine-generating units which will be arranged in 6 turbine farms with 
each farm consisting of 11 turbine groups, containing 6 units each; (2) 
a control house containing control and synchronizing panels, power 
conditioning equipment, protective relaying, and communications 
equipment; (3) a proposed 200-foot-long, 46-kilovolt transmission line; 
and (4) appurtenant facilities. The proposed St. Clair Hydrokinetic 
Project would have an average annual generation of 155 gigawatt-hours.
