Davis Hydro, LLC Notice of Preliminary Permit Application 
Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To Intervene, and 
Competing Applications

    On June 4, 2013, the Davis Hydro, LLC, filed an application for a 
preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the Federal Power Act 
(FPA), proposing to study the feasibility of the Lake Davis Hydro 
Project (project) to be located at Lake Davis on Big Grizzly Creek, 
near the town of Portola, Plumas County, California. 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 utilize the existing fish egg filtering 
platform owned by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, 
located below the Grizzly Valley dam on Big Grizzly Creek. The project 
would consist of the following: (1) A powerhouse containing one 320-
kilowatt turbine; (2) a 2,208-foot-long transmission line extending 
from the powerhouse and interconnecting with existing transmission 
lines; and (3) appurtenant facilities. The proposed project would have 
a total installed capacity of 0.32 megawatts and generate an estimated 
average annual energy production of 2,000 megawatt-hours.
