Lock + TM Hydro Friends Fund XXVII, LLC; Notice of Preliminary 
Permit Application Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions 
To Intervene, and Competing Applications

September 4, 2009.
    On July 6, 2009, Lock + TM Hydro Friends Fund XXVII, LLC, filed an 
application, pursuant to section 4(f) of the Federal Power Act, 
proposing to study the feasibility of the Redd Foxx Hydroelectric 
Project, to be located on the Fox River, in Winnebago County, 
Wisconsin.
    The proposed Redd Foxx Project would be located at the U.S. Army 
Corps of Engineers Fox River Menasha Locks Dam near Menasha, Wisconsin.
    The proposed project would consist of: (1) One new underwater frame 
module containing nine turbines with a total installed capacity of 
about 4.73 megawatts which would be installed east of the dam in a 
conduit located adjacent to the Corps' active lock; (2) a new removable 
lock door; (3) a new switchyard, transformer, and control room; (4) a 
new 1000-foot-long, 36.7 kilovolt transmission line, which would 
deliver power from the turbines to an existing transformer tie-in bus 
located at the Corps' lock and dam facilities; and (5) appurtenant 
facilities. The Redd Foxx Project would have an estimated average 
annual generation of about 37,278 megawatts-hours, which would be sold 
to a local utility.
