[Project No. 13365-000]


City of Angoon; Notice of Preliminary Permit Application Accepted 
for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To Intervene, and Competing 
Applications

June 1, 2009.
    On February 5, 2009 and supplemented on May 14, 2009, the City of 
Angoon filed an application for a preliminary permit, pursuant to 
section 4(f) of the Federal Power Act, proposing to study the 
feasibility of the Scenery Lake Hydroelectric Project located on 
Scenery Lake and Scenery Creek, near the town of Petersburg, Alaska. 
The project would be located within the Tongass National Forest, with a 
portion of the transmission line crossing the state of Alaska and city 
of Petersburg's lands. 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) A 120-foot-high concrete 
arch dam with spillway impounding Scenery Lake having a surface area of 
520 to 820 acres and a storage capacity of 58,000 to 80,000 acre-feet; 
(2) a lake tap or siphon with fish screen; (3) a 13,000-foot-long by 8-
foot-diameter power conduit; (4) a powerhouse containing two to four 
new generating units having an installed capacity of 40 megawatts; (5) 
a proposed 29-mile-long, 69- and 138-kilovolt transmission line; and 
(6) appurtenant facilities. The proposed Scenery Lake Project would 
have an average annual generation of 80 gigawatt-hours.
    Applicant Contact: Albert Howard, Mayor, City of Angoon, P.O. Box 
189, Angoon, AK 99820; phone: (907) 788-3653.
