Paul Greyshock; Notice of Preliminary Permit Application Accepted 
for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To Intervene, and Competing 
Applications

    On December 4, 2014, Paul Greyshock filed an application for a 
preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the Federal Power Act 
(FPA), proposing to study the feasibility of the Ft. Pierce Pilot 
Project (Ft. Pierce Project or project) to be located in the Fort 
Pierce Inlet, near the City of Fort Pierce, St. Lucie County, Florida. 
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 project would consist of the following: A prototype 
sub-surface propeller generator encased within 6-foot-diameter, 2-foot-
wide tube, screened on both ends to protect marine life and protect the 
mechanism from debris. The generator has a capacity of 40 kilowatts, 
and will be suspended in 18-foot-deep water near the mouth of the 
inlet. Anchors on each end of the generator housing will secure it to 
the inlet floor. A transmission cable will connect the generator to a 
series of batteries located behind the Manatee Bar and Grill to monitor 
load and output. The estimated annual generation of the Ft. Pierce 
Project would be 80.0 megawatt-hours.

St., Vero Beach, Florida 32960; phone: (772) 501-4865 or Mr. David Cox,
