Description of Request: The licensee’s recreation plan proposes to relocate the existing tailrace fishing access area from the east bank of the Shetucket River (river), as required by Article 416, to the west bank of the river.

The railroad prohibits the public from to crossing railroad property to access the east bank for PO 00000 Frm 00035 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 7861 fishing due to safety concerns. Consequently, the informal path to the river has been closed. If the recreation plan is approved, the licensee would relocate the tailrace fishing access area to the tailrace section on the west bank of the river. The new site would be accessible to the public by watercraft only. The licensee is proposing this location to keep the fishing access area within the tailrace and to maintain the characteristics of its previously provided area. l.

(Erie or transferor) and the Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe (Tribe or transferee) filed an application to transfer the license for the Hogansburg Hydroelectric Project No. 7518, located on the St. Regis River in Franklin County, New York. That same day, the Tribe (as a prospective licensee) filed an application to surrender the project license and to decommission and remove the project dam. On January 21, 2015, Erie and the Tribe filed a letter requesting that the Commission construe their November 27, 2013 filings as a request to partially transfer the license for the Hogansburg Project to add the Tribe as a co-licensee.
