[Project No. 1966-000]


Notice of Authorization for Continued Project Operation; 
Wisconsin Public Service Corporation

    On September 28, 2012, Wisconsin Public Service Corporation, 
licensee for the Grandfather Falls Hydroelectric Project, filed an 
Application for a New License pursuant to the Federal Power Act (FPA) 
and the Commission's regulations thereunder. The Grandfather Falls 
Hydroelectric Project facility is located on the Wisconsin River in 
Lincoln County, Wisconsin.
    The license for Project No. 1966 was issued for a period ending 
March 31, 2018. Section 15(a)(1) of the FPA, 16 U.S.C. 808(a)(1), 
requires the Commission, at the expiration of a license term, to issue 
from year-to-year an annual license to the then licensee under the 
terms and conditions of the prior license until a new license is 
issued, or the project is otherwise disposed of as provided in section 
15 or any other applicable section of the FPA. If the project's prior 
license waived the applicability of section 15 of the FPA, then, based 
on section 9(b) of the Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. 558(c), 
and as set forth at 18 CFR 16.21(a), if the licensee of such project 
has filed an application for a subsequent license, the licensee may 
continue to operate the project in accordance with the terms and 
conditions of the license after the minor or minor part license 
expires, until the Commission acts on its application. If the licensee 
of such a project has not filed an application for a subsequent 
license, then it may be required, pursuant to 18 CFR 16.21(b), to 
continue project operations until the Commission issues someone else a 
license for the project or otherwise orders disposition of the project.
    If the project is subject to section 15 of the FPA, notice is 
hereby given that an annual license for Project No. 1966 is issued to 
the licensee for a period effective April 1, 2018 through March 31, 
2019 or until the issuance of a new license for the project or other 
disposition under the FPA, whichever comes first. If issuance of a new 
license (or other disposition) does not take place on or before March 
31, 2019, notice is hereby given that, pursuant to 18 CFR 16.18(c), an 
annual license under section 15(a)(1) of the FPA is renewed 
automatically without further order or notice by the Commission, unless 
the Commission orders otherwise.
    If the project is not subject to section 15 of the FPA, notice is 
hereby given that the licensee, Wisconsin Public Service Corporation, 
is authorized to continue operation of the Grandfather Falls 
Hydroelectric Project, until such time as the Commission acts on its 
application for a subsequent license.

    Dated: April 3, 2018.
Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
