          - [Project No., 14644-000]

On October 29, 2014, the Kings River Conservation District (applicant) filed an application for a preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the Federal Power Act, proposing to study the feasibility of the Peoples Weir Hydroelectric Project at the Peoples Weir on the Kings River, near the city of Kingsburg in King County, California. 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 applicant seeks to study one or more configurations for installing generating facilities immediately below Peoples Weir that would generate with streamflow that would normally pass over the dam. Based upon preliminary studies, the site has the potential to generate 590 kilowatts with an annual energy output of 1.9 gigawatt-hours. The project would likely connect to PG&E's transmission system located about 1000 feet from the powerhouse site.
