Arkansas Electric Cooperative Corporation; Notice of Preliminary 
Permit Application Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions 
To Intervene, and Competing Applications

    On March 3, 2015, Arkansas Electric Cooperative Corporation, 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 to be located at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' 
(Corps) David D. Terry Lock and Dam #6 on the Arkansas River near the 
town of Little Rock in Pulaski County, Arkansas. 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: (1) A 600-
foot-long, 500-foot-wide intake channel; (2) a 200-foot-long, 210-foot-
wide powerhouse containing four generating units with a

[[Page 30229]]

total capacity of 39.6 megawatts; (3) a 1,100-foot-long, 400-foot-wide 
tailrace; (4) a 6.9/115 kilo-Volt (kV) substation; and (5) a 4-mile-
long, 115kV transmission line. The proposed project would have an 
estimated average annual generation of 140,000 megawatt-hours, and 
operate as directed by the Corps.
