    j. Description of Proceeding: The licensee, Sappi Cloquet LLC, 
requests that the Commission extend the term of the license for the 
Cloquet Hydroelectric Project 10 years, from June 30, 2025 to June 30, 
2035. The licensee is requesting the extension to align the license 
expiration date of the project with that of the St. Louis River 
Hydroelectric Project No. 2360. The Cloquet Project is located between 
the Knife Falls and Scanlon developments of the St. Louis River 
Project. The licensee states that the extension would allow it to 
coordinate its relicensing efforts with those of the St. Louis River 
Project to increase efficiency and evaluate the operational and 
environment impacts of the two projects in a comprehensive manner. The 
licensee's request includes comments from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife 
Service and the National Park Service supporting the license extension.
