k. Calligan Creek Hydro Inc., has

applied for license amendment to the

Calligan Creek Hydroelectric Project.

The current license for the project was

issued on May 13, 1993. An order

amending the license was issued on

June 2, 1994, approving the change from

an overhead transmission line to a

buried one. On April 10, 1995, the

Commission issued an order granting an

extension of time for the construction of

the project commencement date of May

13, 1997 and construction completion

on May 13, 1999. On March 24, 1999,

the Commission issued another order

extending the date for the projects

construction commencement and

construction completion to May 13,

2001 and May 13, 2003, respectively. No

project facilities have been constructed

to date.

The licensee has requested an

amendment to change the project

capacity from 5.4 MW to 7.4 MW with

a 36 percent increase in hydraulic

capacity to allow maximum power

production during high flows; modify

the intake and diversion structures to

accommodate the increased flow needed

to support the increased generation

capacity, including an increase of

surface area to the fish screens; bury the

first 2,000 feet of the penstock to a

depth of about 100 feet to eliminate the

need for the approved siphon; and

change the current tailrace design from

a 140-foot-long buried pipe to an

approximately 100-foot-long open

channel.

l. A copy of the application is

available for inspection and

reproduction at the Commission’s

Public Reference Room at 888 First

Street NE, Room 2A, Washington, DC

20426, or by calling (202) 208–1371.

k. Hancock Creek Hydro Inc., has

applied for license amendment to the

Hancock Creek Hydroelectric Project.

The current license for the project was

issued on June 23, 1993. On April 25,

1995, the Commission issued an order

granting an extension of time with a

construction commencement date of

June 21, 1997, and construction

completion June 21, 1999. On March 26,

1999, the Commission issued another

order extending the date for the project’s

construction commencement and

construction completion to June 21,

2001 and June 21, 2003, respectively.

No project facilities have been

constructed to date.

The licensee has requested an

amendment to change the project

capacity from 6.3 MW to 7.4 MW with

a 14.8 percent increase in hydraulic

capacity to allow maximum power

production during high flows; modify

the intake and diversion structures to

accommodate the increased flow needed

to support the increased generation

capacity, including an increase of

surface area to the fish screens; reroute

the first 2,500 feet of penstock to avoid

a 0.46 acre sphagnum bog/wetland; bury

the first 2,500 feet of the penstock to a

depth of about 100 feet to eliminate the

need for the approved siphon; shift the

location of the powerhouse slightly to

facilitate the use of an existing access

road and create a short spur road,

allowing access to the powerhouse from

the north instead of the east, improving

the aesthetics in the area; change the

current tailrace design from a 140-footlong buried pipe to a slightly shorter

open channel, and modify the overhead

transmission line, proposed in the

current license, to a buried transmission

line to provide greater reliability, visual

benefits and eliminate the need for

raptor protection.

available for inspection and

reproduction at the Commission’s

Public Reference Room at 888 First

Street, NE., Room 2A, Washington, DC
