The project occupies 44 acres of land administered by the Bureau of Land Management. The principal project works consist of: (1) A 920-foot-long, 50-foot-wide ditch diverting water from an unnamed stream to an upper pond; (2) a 12.59acre upper pond created by a 200-footlong, 50-foot-wide, 5-foot-high earthen dam with a spillway and a 200-footlong overflow ditch; (3) a short metal flume and a 275-foot-long, 12-inch-diameter wood stave pipe conveying water from the upper pond to the lower pond; (4) a 1000-foot-long, 50-foot-wide ditch diverting water from an unnamed stream to the lower pond; (5) a 2.2-acre lower pond created by a 200-foot-long, 50-foot-wide, 5-foot-high earthen dam; (6) a 6,772- foot-long PVC and steel penstock conveying water from the lower pond to the powerhouse; (7) a steel powerhouse with a 75-kilowatt Pelton turbine; (8) a short transmission line; and (9) appurtenant facilities. At least 24 months before the expiration of a license for a minor water power project in which sections 14 and 15 of the Federal Power Act were waived, the Commission’s regulations require the licensee to file with the Commission an application for a subsequent license.2 Accordingly, the licensee was required to file a subsequent license application by June 1, 2018. On May 30, 2018, PB Energy filed an application for a subsequent license for the Dry Spruce Bay Project. However, on May, 1, 2019, Commission staff rejected PB Energy’s license application for failing to cure deficiencies and respond to additional information requests. If the Commission rejects or dismisses a subsequent license application, the licensee may not refile the application after the deadline to file (i.e., June 1, 2018).3 Because the only timely-filed license application has been dismissed, the Commission is soliciting applications from other potential applicants for the project. Any party interested in filing a license application for the Dry Spruce Bay Project No. 1432 must first file a notice of intent (NOI) 4 and pre-application document (PAD) 5 pursuant to Part 5 of the Commission’s regulations. Although the integrated licensing process (ILP) is the default pre-filing process, section 5.3(b) of the Commission’s regulations allows a potential license applicant to request to use the traditional licensing process or alternative procedures when it files its NOI.6 2 18 1 Wards Cove Packing Co., 51 FERC ¶ 62,228 (1990).
