Kram Hydro 8, LLC; Notice of
Preliminary Permit Application
Accepted for Filing and Soliciting
Comments, Motions To Intervene, and
Competing Applications
On October 11, 2024, Kram Hydro 8,
LLC, filed an application for a
preliminary permit, pursuant to section
4(f) of the Federal Power Act (FPA),
proposing to study the feasibility of a
hydropower project that would be
located at the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers’ (Corps) Howell Heflin Lock
and Dam on Tennessee-Tombigbee
River, near the Town of Gainesville, in
Sumter County, Alabama. The sole
purpose of a preliminary permit, if
issued, is to grant the permit holder
priority to file a license application
during the permit term. A preliminary
permit does not authorize the permit
holder to perform any land-disturbing
activities or otherwise enter upon lands
or waters owned by others without the
owners’ express permission.
The proposed Howell Heflin Lock and
Dam Hydroelectric Project would
consist of the following: (1) a 125-footwide, 350-foot-long armored intake
channel; (2) a 125-foot-long, 125-footwide concrete powerhouse located
downstream of the existing Corps dam
on the eastern bank, containing two
Kaplan turbine-generator units, with a
combined generating capacity of 30
megawatts; (3) a 200-foot-long, 125-footwide unlined tailrace; and (4) a 2.75mile-long, 46 kilovolt transmission line.
The proposed project would have an
estimated annual generation of 208.4
gigawatt-hours.

Rover Pipeline LLC; Notice of Scoping
Period Requesting Comments on
Environmental Issues for the Proposed
Rover-Bulger Compressor Station and
Harmon Creek Meter Station
Expansion Project
The staff of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) will prepare an
environmental document, that will
discuss the environmental impacts of
the Rover-Bulger Compressor Station
and Harmon Creek Meter Station
Expansion Project (Project) involving
construction and operation of facilities
by Rover Pipeline LLC (Rover) in Smith
Township, Washington County,
Pennsylvania. The Commission will use
this environmental document in its
decision-making process to determine
whether the project is in the public
convenience and necessity.
This notice announces the opening of
the scoping process the Commission
will use to gather input from the public
and interested agencies regarding the
project. As part of the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
review process, the Commission takes
into account concerns the public may
have about proposals and the
environmental impacts that could result
from its action whenever it considers
the issuance of a Certificate of Public
Convenience and Necessity. This
gathering of public input is referred to
as ‘‘scoping.’’ The main goal of the
scoping process is to focus the analysis
in the environmental document on the
important environmental issues.
Additional information about the
Commission’s NEPA process is
described below in the NEPA Process
and Environmental Document section of
this notice.
By this notice, the Commission
requests public comments on the scope
of issues to address in the
environmental document. To ensure
that your comments are timely and
properly recorded, please submit your
comments so that the Commission
receives them in Washington, DC on or
before 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on
January 10, 2025. Comments may be
