Igiugig Village Council; Notice of Successive Preliminary Permit 
Application Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To 
Intervene, and Competing Applications

    On October 1, 2012, Igiugig Village Council (IVC) filed an 
application for a successive preliminary permit, pursuant to section 
4(f) of the Federal Power Act, proposing to study the feasibility of 
the Igiugig RISEC Water Power Project (Igiugig Project or project), to 
be located on the Kvichak River in the Lake and Peninsula Borough, 
Alaska. 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) Up to 8 
proposed RISEC kinetic energy-to-electrical energy conversion devices 
having a total installed capacity of 40 kilowatts; (2) a proposed 
transmission line that will either connect directly to the IVC diesel 
power plant or a 1,000-foot-long transmission line interconnecting with 
the Iguigig Village electric distribution system (depending on the 
location of the RISEC devices); and (3) appurtenant facilities. The 
proposed project would have an estimated average annual generation of 
250 megawatt-hours.
