    • On September 28, 2021, KEI Power Management, LLC filed a relicense application for the 1-megawatt Lowell Tannery Hydroelectric Project No. 4202 (project). The project is located on the Passadumkeag River in Penobscot County, Maine.

    In accordance with the Commission's regulations, on May 30, 2024, Commission staff issued a notice that the project was ready for environmental analysis (REA Notice). Based on the information in the record, including comments filed on the REA Notice, staff does not anticipate that licensing the project would constitute a major Federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment. Therefore, staff intends to prepare an Environmental Assessment (EA) on the application to relicense the project.

    In accordance with the Council on Environmental Quality's regulations, the unique identification number for documents relating to this environmental review is EAXX-019-20-000-1727186599. 40 CFR 1501.5(c)(4) (2024).

    The EA will be issued and circulated for review by all interested parties. All comments filed on the EA will be analyzed by staff and considered in the Commission's final licensing decision.

    The Commission's Office of Public Participation (OPP) supports meaningful public engagement and participation in Commission proceedings. OPP can help members of the public, including landowners, environmental justice communities, Tribal members and others, access publicly available information and navigate Commission processes. For public inquiries and assistance with making filings such as interventions, comments, or requests for rehearing, the public is encouraged to contact OPP at (202) 502-6595 or OPP@ferc.gov.

    The application will be processed according to the following schedule. The EA will be issued for a 30-day comment period. Revisions to the schedule may be made as appropriate.

    Milestone: Commission issues EA.

    Target Date: August 29, 2025.

    Any questions regarding this notice may be directed to Robert Haltner at (202) 502-8612 or robert.haltner@ferc.gov.

    Dated: September 24, 2024.
