42672 Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 174 / Monday, September 11, 2017 / Notices 

a 26-foot-wide, 1.3-foot-deep gated 

intake located on top of the spillway 

protected by a 6-foot-high, 30-foot-wide 

steel trash rack with 6-inch clear bar 

spacing; (4) a 27-foot-long, 6-foot-wide, 

concrete sluiceway; (5) a concrete 

powerhouse, located at the base of the 

dam, containing one 50-foot-long by 9- 

foot-diameter Archimedes screw 

turbine-generator unit (ASG unit), rated 

at 140 kW; (6) a water-level sensor, and 

automatic sluice gate controller; (7) a 

650-foot-long, 460-volt, above-ground 

transmission line; and (8) appurtenant 

facilities. The estimated annual 

generation of the proposed Camp 

McDowell Project would be about 950 

megawatt-hours. The applicant proposes 

to operate the project in a run-of-river 

mode. There are no federal or state 

lands associated with the project. 

m. Due to the applicant’s close 

coordination with federal and state 

agencies during the preparation of the 

application, studies completed during 

pre-filing consultation, and small size 

and location of the project, we intend to 

waive scoping and expedite the 

exemption process. Based on a review of 

the application and resource agency 

consultation letters filed to date, 

Commission staff intends to prepare a 

single environmental assessment (EA). 

Commission staff determined that the 

issues that need to be addressed in its 

EA have been adequately identified 

during the pre-filing period, which 

included a public scoping meeting and 

site visit, and no new issues are likely 

to be identified through additional 

scoping. The EA will assess the 

potential effects of project construction 

and operation on geology and soils, 

aquatic, terrestrial, threatened and 

endangered species, recreation and land 

use, aesthetic, and cultural and historic 

resources. 

n. A copy of the application is 

available for review at the Commission 

in the Public Reference Room or may be 

viewed on the Commission’s Web site at 

http://www.ferc.gov using the eLibrary 

link. Enter the docket number excluding 

the last three digits in the docket 

number field to access the document. 

For assistance, contact FERC Online 

Support. A copy is also available for 

inspection and reproduction at the 

address in item h above. 

o. You may also register online at 

http://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/ 

esubscription.asp to be notified via 

email of new filings and issuances 

related to this or other pending projects. 

For assistance, contact FERC Online 

Support. 

p. Any qualified applicant desiring to 

file a competing application must 

submit to the Commission, on or before 

the specified intervention deadline date, 

a competing development application, 

or a notice of intent to file such an 

application. Submission of a timely 

notice of intent allows an interested 

person to file the competing 

development application no later than 

120 days after the specified intervention 

deadline date. Applications for 

preliminary permits will not be 

accepted in response to this notice. 

q. A notice of intent must specify the 

exact name, business address, and 

telephone number of the prospective 

applicant, and must include an 

unequivocal statement of intent to 

submit a development application. A 

notice of intent must be served on the 

applicant(s) named in this public notice. 

r. Anyone may submit comments, a 

protest, or a motion to intervene in 

accordance with the requirements of 

Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 

385.210, .211, .214. In determining the 

appropriate action to take, the 

Commission will consider all protests or 

other comments 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 comments, protests, or

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Project No. 14833–000] 

Notice of Preliminary Permit 

Application Accepted for Filing and 

Soliciting Comments, Motions To 

Intervene, and Competing 

Applications; Merchant Hydro 

Developers, LLC 

On January 18, 2017, Merchant Hydro 

Developers, 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 Snoosh Mountain Pumped 

Storage Hydroelectric Project to be 

located in Somerset County, 

Pennsylvania. 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 

the following: (1) A new upper reservoir 

with a surface area of 66 acres and a 

storage capacity of 990 acre-feet at a 

surface elevation of approximately 2,670 

feet above mean sea level (msl) created 

through construction of a new rollercompacted concrete or rock-filled dam 

and/or dike; (2) excavating a new lower 

reservoir with a surface area of 60 acres 

and a total storage capacity of 1,188 

acre-feet at a surface elevation of 1,850 

feet msl; (3) a new 2,670-foot-long, 48- 

inch-diameter penstock connecting the 

upper and lower reservoirs; (4) a new 

150-foot-long, 50-foot-wide powerhouse 

containing two turbine-generator units 

with a total rated capacity of 67 

megawatts; (5) a new transmission line 

connecting the powerhouse to a nearby 

115-kilovolt electric grid 

interconnection point; and (6) 

appurtenant facilities. Possible initial 

fill water and make-up water would 

come from the nearby Raystown Branch 

of the Juniata River, including 

groundwater. The proposed project 

would have an annual generation of 

242,920 megawatt-hours.
