FFP Project 77, LLC; Notice of Preliminary Permit Application 
Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To Intervene, and 
Competing Applications

July 9, 2009.
    On May 22, 2009, FFP Project 77, LLC filed an application for a 
preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the Federal Power Act, 
proposing to study the feasibility of the Cow Island Bend Hydrokinetic 
Project, to be located on the Mississippi River, in Crittenden County, 
Arkansas; DeSoto County, Mississippi; and Shelby County, Tennessee.
    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 Cow Island Bend Hydrokinetic Project consists of: (1) 
3,802 proposed 40 kilowatt Free Flow generating units having a total 
installed capacity of 152.08 megawatts; (2) a 5-mile-long, 69 kilovolt 
transmission line; and (3) appurtenant facilities. The proposed Cow 
Island Bend Hydrokinetic Project would have an average annual 
generation of 666 gigawatt-hours.
    Applicant Contact: Ramya Swaminathan, Vice President of 
Development, Free Flow Power Corporation, 33 Commercial Street, 
Gloucester, MA 01930; phone: (978) 226-1531.
    FERC Contact: Kim Carter, 202-502-6486.
