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

October 20, 2010.
    On March 23, 2010, and supplemented on May 27, 2010, KC Hydro 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 Cline Falls Hydro Project located on the Deschutes River in 
Deschutes County, Oregon. 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 will consist of the following: (1) A 5-foot-
high, 300-foot-long diversion structure; (2) a pond with a storage 
capacity of 1 to 2 acre-feet; (3) a canal and box flume, connected to a 
96-inch-diameter, 45-foot-long steel penstock; (4) a powerhouse 
containing a 750-kW Francis turbine/generator; (5) a tailrace leading 
from a rock chamber located under the turbine to the River; and (6) 
appurtenant facilities. Annual energy production is estimated to be 807 
megawatt-hours.
