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 Coffeeville 

Lock and Dam Hydroelectric Project 

(Coffeeville Project or project) to be 

located at the U.S. Army Corps of 

Engineers’ Coffeeville Lock and Dam on 

the Tombigbee River in Clark County, 

Alabama. 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. 

Energy Resources’ permit application 

is filed in competition with Lock+TM

Hydro Friends Fund II, proposed 

Coffeeville Lock and Dam Hydroelectric 

Project No. 14673–000, which was 

publicly noticed November 24, 2015. 

The deadline for filing competing 

applications was January 25, 2016. 

Energy Resources competing permit 

application was timely filed. 

The proposed project would consist of 

the following: (1) A 500-foot-long, 200- 

foot-wide intake channel; (2) a 131-footlong, 197-foot-wide powerhouse 

containing three generating units with a 

total capacity of 33 megawatts; (3) a 400- 

foot-long, 20-foot-wide tailrace; (4) a 

6.9/69 kilo-Volt (kV) substation; (5) a 

34-mile-long addition to the existing 

access road; and (6) a 3-mile-long, 69 kV 

transmission line. The proposed project 

would have an estimated average annual 

generation of 186,000 megawatt-hours, 

and operate as directed by the Corps.
