recommendations, and prescriptions under P-12970-001, the 60-day 
timeframe specified in 18 CFR 4.34(b) for filing comments (including 
mandatory and recommended terms and conditions or prescriptions) on the 
application for license is shortened. Motions to intervene and 
protests, comments, terms and conditions, recommendations,

    All new documents may be filed electronically via the Internet. See 
18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's Web 
site https://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/efiling.asp. Commenters can submit

electronic filing, documents may also be paper-filed. To paper-file, 
mail an original and five copies to: Kimberly D. Bose, Secretary, 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE., Washington, 
DC 20426.
    The Commission's Rules of Practice require all intervenors filing 
documents with the Commission to serve a copy of that document on each 
person on the official service list for the project. Further, if an 
intervenor files comments or documents with the Commission relating to 
the merits of an issue that may affect the responsibilities of a 
particular resource agency, they must also serve a copy of the document 
on that resource agency.
    l. The application for license has been accepted for filing and is 
now ready for environmental analysis.
    m. The Pomperaug Hydro Project would consist of: (1) The existing 
90-foot-long, 15-foot-high Pomperaug River dam equipped with three 
existing gates; (2) an existing 3-acre impoundment with a normal water 
surface elevation of 226.43 feet above mean sea level; (3) an existing 
40-foot-long, 42- to 50-inch-diameter penstock; and (4) an existing 
powerhouse integral to the dam, containing one new 76-kilowatt turbine 
generating unit. Project power would be transmitted through a new 35-
foot-long, 208-volt underground transmission line. The proposed project 
is estimated to generate an average of 300,000 kilowatt-hours annually.
    The applicant proposes to: (1) Rehabilitate the existing gates and 
construct a new intake structure; (2) install the new turbine 
generating unit; (3) construct new fish and eel passage facilities; and 
(4) bury the new transmission line. The application for license does 
not include any proposed modifications to the crest elevation of the 
dam or the water surface elevation of the impoundment.
    n. Due to the applicant's close coordination with federal and state 
agencies during the preparation of the application, completed studies, 
and prior opportunities for public and agency comment, we intend to 
waive scoping. The issues that need to be addressed in Commission 
staff's environmental assessment (EA) have been adequately identified 
through comments filed on P-12970-001 and comments made during a 
January 18, 2012, public meeting and site visit and no new issues are 
likely to be identified through additional scoping. The EA will 
consider assessing the potential effects of project construction and 
operation on geology and soils, aquatic resources, terrestrial 
resources, recreation, land use, aesthetic resources, and cultural 
resources.
    o. A copy of the application is available for review at the 
Commission in the Public Reference Room or may be viewed on the 
Commission's Web site at https://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary''

CFR 385.210, 385.211, and 385.214. 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
