Shenango Dam Hydroelectric Company, LLC; Notice of Preliminary 
Permit Application Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions 
To Intervene, and Competing Applications

    On August 11, 2015, Shenango Dam Hydroelectric Company, 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 
hydropower at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' (Corps) Shenango dam 
located on the Shenango River, near the Borough of Sharpsburg, Mercer 
County, Pennsylvania. 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 Shenango Hydroelectric Project would consist of the 
following: (1) Five bulb turbines/generators having a total installed 
capacity of 2,500 kilowatts to be installed on the upstream face of the 
existing dam in five of the seven discharge conduits; (2) a proposed 
steel equipment building 11 feet wide by 40 feet long housing the 
switchgear and transformer; (3) a 400-foot-long, 14.7-kilovolt 
transmission line extending to an existing FirstEnergy transmission 
system; and (4) appurtenant facilities. The proposed project would have 
an average annual generation of 10,000 megawatthours.

LLC, 3000 Auburn Drive, Suite 430, Beachwood, OH 44122; phone: (216)
