[Project No. 1932-000]
Southern California Edison Company; Notice of Authorization for
Continued Project Operation
May 7, 1996.
On April 29, 1994, Southern California Edison Company, licensee for
the Lytle Creek Project No. 1932, filed an application for a new or
subsequent license pursuant to the Federal Power Act (FPA) and the
Commission's regulations thereunder. Project No. 1932 is located on
Lytle Creek in San Bernardino County, California.
The license for Project No. 1932 was issued for a period ending
April 30, 1996. Section 15(a)(1) of the FPA, 16 U.S.C. 808(a)(1),
requires the Commission, at the expiration of a license term, to issue
from year to year an annual license to the then licensee under the
terms and conditions of the prior license until a new license is
issued, or the project is otherwise
[[Page 22043]]
disposed of as provided in Section 15 or any other applicable section
of the FPA. If the project's prior license waived the applicability of
Section 15 of the FPA, then, based on Section 9(b) of the
Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. 558(c), and as set forth at 18
CFR 16.21(a), if the licensee of such project has filed an application
for a subsequent license, the licensee may continue to operate the
project in accordance with the terms and conditions of the license
after the minor or minor part license expires, until the Commission
acts on its application. If the licensee of such a project has not
filed an application for a subsequent license, then it may be required,
pursuant to 18 CFR 16.21(b), to continue project operations until the
Commission issues someone else a license for the project or otherwise
orders disposition of the project.
If the project is subject to section 15 of the FPA, notice is
hereby given that an annual license for Project No. 1932 is issued to
Southern California Edison Company for a period effective May 1, 1996,
through April 30, 1997, or until the issuance of a new license for the
project or other disposition under the FPA, whichever comes first. If
issuance of a new license or (other disposition) does not take place on
or before April 30, 1997, notice is hereby given that, pursuant to 18
CFR 16.18(c), an annual license under Section 15(a)(1) of the FPA is
renewed automatically without further order or notice by the
Commission, unless the Commission orders otherwise.
If the project is not subject to Section 15 of the FPA, notice is
hereby given that Southern California Edison Company is authorized to
continue operation of the Lytle Creek Project No. 1932 until such time
as the Commission acts on its application for subsequent license.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
