an unequivocal statement of intent to 

submit a competing development 

application. A notice of intent must be 

served on the applicant(s) named in this 

public notice. 

p. Protests or Motions to Intervene— 

Anyone may submit a protest or a 

motion to intervene in accordance with 

the requirements of Rules of Practice 

and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.210, 

385.211, and 385.214. In determining 

the appropriate action to take, the 

Commission will consider all protests 

filed, but only those who file a motion 

to intervene in accordance with the 

Commission’s Rules may become a 

party to the proceeding. Any protests or 

motions to intervene must be received 

on or before the specified deadline date 

for the particular application. 

q. All filings must (1) bear in all 

capital letters the title ‘‘PROTEST,’’ 

‘‘MOTION TO INTERVENE,’’ ‘‘NOTICE 

OF INTENT TO FILE COMPETING 

APPLICATION,’’ ‘‘COMPETING 

APPLICATION,’’ ‘‘COMMENTS,’’ 

‘‘REPLY COMMENTS,’’ 

‘‘RECOMMENDATIONS,’’ ‘‘TERMS AND 

CONDITIONS,’’ or ‘‘PRESCRIPTIONS;’’ 

(2) set forth in the heading, the name of 

the applicant and the project number of 

the application to which the filing 

responds; (3) furnish the name, address, 

and telephone number of the person 

protesting or intervening; and (4) 

otherwise comply with the requirements 

of 18 CFR 385.2001 through 385.2005. 

All comments, recommendations, terms 

and conditions or prescriptions must set 

forth their evidentiary basis and 

otherwise comply with the requirements 

of 18 CFR 4.34(b). Agencies may obtain 

copies of the application directly from 

the applicant. Any of these documents 

must be filed by providing the original 

and seven copies to: The Secretary, 

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 

888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 

20426. An additional copy must be sent 

to Director, Division of Hydropower 

Administration and Compliance, Office 

of Energy Projects, Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission, at the above 

address. A copy of any protest or motion 

to intervene must be served upon each 

representative of the applicant specified 

in the particular application. A copy of 

all other filings in reference to this

r. Waiver of Pre-filing Consultation: In 

a letter dated April 1, 2010, the 

applicant requested the agencies’ 

support to waive the Commission’s 

consultation requirements under 18 CFR 

4.38(c). On June 4, 2010, the U.S. Fish 

and Wildlife Service (FWS) 

recommended that a habitat assessment 

be completed to assess the potential for 

federally listed species to occur within 

the project area. In response, the 

applicant provided a report stating that 

the proposed construction will have no 

impact to federally listed species. No 

other comments were received. 

Therefore, we intend to accept the 

consultation that has occurred on this 

project during the pre-filing period and 

we intend to waive pre-filing 

consultation under section 4.38(c), 

which requires, among other things, 

conducting studies requested by 

resource agencies, and distributing and 

consulting on a draft exemption 

application.

Secretary.
