      To authorize extension of time limitation for a FERC-issued 
                         hydroelectric license.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled, That notwithstanding 
the time limitation of section 13 of the Federal Power Act, the Federal 
Energy Regulatory Commission, upon the request of the licensee for FERC 
Project No. 3701, is authorized, in accordance with the good faith, due 
diligence, and public interest requirements of section 13 and the 
Commission's procedures under such section, to extend until May 31, 
2001, the time required for the licensee to commence the construction 
of such project. This section shall take effect for the project upon 
the expiration of the extension (issued by the Commission under section 
13) of the period required for commencement of construction of such 
project. If the license for FERC Project 3701 should expire prior to 
the date of enactment of this Act, the Commission is authorized and 
directed to reinstate effective June 1, 1995, the license previously 
issued for such project, to extend until May 31, 2001, the time 
required for the licensee to commence the construction of such project.
