    with a total capacity of 8.2 MW and an estimated average annual 
    generation of 50.0 GWh; and (3) a 200-foot-long transmission line.
        l. Locations of the application: A copy of the application is

        Preliminary Permit--Any qualified development applicant desiring to 
    file a competing development application must submit to the Commission, 
    on or before a specified comment date for the particular application, 
    either a competing development application or a notice of intent to 
    file such an application. Submission of a timely notice of intent to 
    file a development application allows an interested person to file the 
    competing application no later than 120 days after the specified 
    comment date for the particular application. A competing license 
    application must conform with 18 CFR 4.30(b) and 4.36.

    application). A notice of intent must be served on the applicant(s) 
    named in this public notice.
        Proposed Scope of Studies under Permit--A preliminary permit, if 
    issued, does not authorize construction. The term of the proposed 
    preliminary permit would be 36 months. The work proposed under the 
    preliminary permit would include economic analysis, preparation of 
    preliminary engineering plans, and a study of environmental impacts. 
    Based on the results of these studies, the Applicant would decide 
    whether to proceed with the preparation of a development application to 
    construct and operate the project.
        Comments, Protests, or Motions to Intervene--Anyone may submit 
    comments, a protest, or a motion to intervene in accordance with the 
    requirements of Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.210, .211, 
    .214. In determining the appropriate action to take, the Commission 
    will consider all protests or other comments filed, but only those who 
    file a motion to intervene in accordance with the Commission's Rules 
    may become a party to the proceeding. Any comments, protests, or 
    motions to intervene must be received on or before the specified 
    comment date for the particular application.
        Filing and Service of Responsive Documents--Any filings must bear 
    in all capital letters the title ``COMMENTS'', ``NOTICE OF INTENT TO 
    FILE COMPETING APPLICATION'', ``COMPETING APPLICATION'', ``PROTEST'', 
    ``MOTION TO INTERVENE'', as applicable, and the Project Number of the 
    particular application to which the filing refers. Any of the above-
    named documents must be filed by providing the original and the number 
    of copies provided by the Commission's regulations to: The Secretary, 
    Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE, Washington, 
    DC 20426. An additional copy must be sent to Director, Division of 
    Project Review, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, at the above-
    mentioned address. A copy of any notice of intent, competing 
    application or motion to intervene must also be served upon each

    application.
        Agency Comments--Federal, state, and local agencies are invited to 
    file comments on the described application. A copy of the application 
    may be obtained by agencies directly from the Applicant. If an agency 
    does not file comments within the time specified for filing comments, 
    it will be presumed to have no comments. One copy of an agency's 
    comments must also be sent to the Applicant's representatives.
