At least five years before the
expiration of a license for a minor water
power project not subject to sections 14
and 15 of the Federal Power Act (i.e., a
project having an installed capacity of
1.5 megawatts or less), the licensee must
file with the Commission a letter that
contains an unequivocal statement of
the licensee’s intent to file or not to file
an application for a subsequent license.1
If such a licensee informs the

file an application for a subsequent
license, nonpower license, or exemption
for the project, the licensee may not file
an application for a subsequent license,
nonpower license, or exemption for the
project, either individually or in

On March 29, 2017, Kennebunk Light
and Power District (Kennebunk Light),
the existing licensee for the Lower
Mousam Project No. 5362, filed notice
of its intent to not file an application for
a subsequent license. Therefore,
pursuant to section 16.24(b)(1) of the
Commission’s regulations, Kennebunk
Light may not file an application for a
subsequent license for the project, either
individually or in conjunction with an
entity or entities that are not currently
licensees of the project.
The 600-kilowatt (kW) Lower
Mousam Project is located on the
Mousam River, in York County, Maine.
No federal lands are affected. The
existing minor license for the project
expires on March 31, 2022.
The project consists of the following
three developments:
Dane Perkins Development
The Dane Perkins Development
consists of: (1) a 12-foot-high, 83-footlong concrete gravity dam with a 50foot-long spillway section that has a
crest elevation of 81.8 feet mean sea
level (msl) and 2.5-foot-high
flashboards; (2) a 25-acre impoundment
with a normal maximum elevation of
84.3 feet msl; (3) a powerhouse
containing a single turbine-generator
unit rated at 150 kW; (4) a generator
lead connecting the turbine-generator
unit to the regional grid; and (5)
appurtenant facilities.
Twine Mill Development
The Twine Mill Development is
located approximately 0.5 miles
downstream from the Dane Perkins
Development and consists of: (1) an 18foot-high, 223-foot-long concrete gravity
dam with an 81-foot-long spillway
section that has a crest elevation of 68.8
feet msl and 3.0-foot-high flashboards;
(2) a 12-acre impoundment with a
normal maximum elevation of 71.8 feet
msl; (3) a powerhouse containing a
single turbine-generator unit rated at
300 kW; (4) a generator lead connecting
the turbine-generator unit to the
regional grid; and (5) appurtenant
facilities.
Kesslen Development
The Kesslen Development is located
approximately 2.5 miles downstream
from the Twine Mill Development and
consists of: (1) an 18-foot-high, 140-footlong concrete gravity dam with a 114foot-long spillway section that has a
crest elevation of 42.2 feet msl and 1.5foot-high flashboards; (2) a 20-acre
impoundment with a normal maximum
elevation of 43.7 feet msl; (3) a
powerhouse containing a single turbinegenerator unit rated at 150 kW; (4) a

generator lead connecting the turbinegenerator unit to the regional grid; and
(5) appurtenant facilities.
Any party interested in filing a license
application (i.e., potential applicant) for
the Lower Mousam Project No. 5362
must file a Notice of Intent (NOI) 3 and
pre-application document (PAD).4
Additionally, while the integrated
licensing process (ILP) is the default
process for preparing an application for
a subsequent license, a potential
applicant may request to use alternative
licensing procedures when it files its
NOI.5
The deadline for potential applicants,
other than the existing licensee, to file
NOIs, PADs, and requests to use an
alternative licensing process is 120 days
from the issuance date of this notice.
Applications for a subsequent license
from potential applicants, other than the
existing licensee, must be filed with the
Commission at least 24 months prior to
the expiration of the existing license.6
Because the existing license expires on
March 31, 2022, applications for license
for this project must be filed by March
31, 2020.7

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the
Notice, the Wireless
Telecommunications Bureau invites
interested parties to update the record
in the WRS Reform NPRM and Order
proceeding, which the Commission
initiated in May 2010. In the NPRM, the
Commission proposed new renewal
standards designed to ‘‘create consistent
requirements for renewal of licenses and
consistent consequences for
discontinuance of service, and to clarify
construction obligations for spectrum
licenses that have been divided, by
geographic partitioning or
disaggregation of the spectrum.’’ In
addition, the Commission proposed to
prohibit the filing of mutually exclusive,
i.e., competing, renewal applications
and imposed a freeze on the filing of
such competing applications. While the
Commission already has a robust record
in this proceeding, including filings
made during the initial comment and
reply period, it provided an opportunity
for stakeholders to update the record
with new information or arguments that
may be relevant to the Commission’s
consideration of what action may be
appropriate in this proceeding.
Pursuant to sections 1.415 and 1.419
of the Commission’s rules, 47 CFR
1.415, 1.419, interested parties may file
comments and reply comments on or
before the dates indicated on the first

At least five years before the expiration of a license for a minor
water power project not subject to sections 14 and 15 of the Federal
Power Act (i.e., a project having an installed capacity of 1.5
megawatts or less), the licensee must file with the Commission a letter
that contains an unequivocal statement of the licensee's intent to file
or not to file an application for a subsequent license.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ 18 CFR 16.19(b) (2016) (citing 18 CFR 16.6(b)). Section
16.19(b) applies to licenses not subject to Parts 14 and 15 of the
Federal Power Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
If such a licensee informs the Commission that it does not intend

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
On March 29, 2017, Kennebunk Light and Power District (Kennebunk
Light), the existing licensee for the Lower Mousam Project No. 5362,
filed notice of its intent to not file an application for a subsequent
license. Therefore, pursuant to section 16.24(b)(1) of the Commission's
regulations, Kennebunk Light may not file an application for a
subsequent license for the project, either individually or in
conjunction with an entity or entities that are not currently licensees
of the project.
The 600-kilowatt (kW) Lower Mousam Project is located on the Mousam
River, in York County, Maine. No federal lands are affected. The
existing minor license for the project expires on March 31, 2022.
The project consists of the following three developments:
Dane Perkins Development
The Dane Perkins Development consists of: (1) a 12-foot-high, 83-
foot-long concrete gravity dam with a 50-foot-long spillway section
that has a crest elevation of 81.8 feet mean sea level (msl) and 2.5-

elevation of 84.3 feet msl; (3) a powerhouse containing a single
turbine-generator unit rated at 150 kW; (4) a generator lead connecting
the turbine-generator unit to the regional grid; and (5) appurtenant
facilities.
Twine Mill Development
The Twine Mill Development is located approximately 0.5 miles
downstream from the Dane Perkins Development and consists of: (1) an
18-foot-high, 223-foot-long concrete gravity dam with an 81-foot-long
spillway section that has a crest elevation of 68.8 feet msl and 3.0-
foot-high flashboards; (2) a 12-acre impoundment with a normal maximum
elevation of 71.8 feet msl; (3) a powerhouse containing a single
