SR Hydropower of Brockway Mills, Inc. SR Hydropower, Inc.; Notice 
Accepting Late Filing and Establishing Deadline for Responses

December 3, 1997.
    On November 1, 1996, Paul V. Nolan, as attorney for the Town of 
Rockingham, Vermont, filed a motion to intervene, protest, and 
comments, as well as a complaint and request for investigation relating 
to events surrounding an application filed August 16, 1996, by SR 
Hydropower of Brockway Mills, Inc. to surrender its license in Project 
No. 3131. On December 16, 1996, John Rais filed on behalf of SR 
Hydropower, Inc. and/or SR Hydropower of Brockway Mills, Inc. a 
response to Rockingham's November 1, 1996 filings.
    On June 2, 1997, Paul Nolan, on behalf of Rockingham filed a letter 
with the Commission, asserting that the December 16, 1996 filing by 
John Rais was not timely filed, nor was a copy of the filing served on 
Rockingingham or Nolan, and should not be accepted for filing. In the 
June 2, 1997 filing, Nolan answered, in part, certain allegations by 
Rais concerning a conflict of interest in Nolan's representation of 
Rockingham in this matter, but reserved the right to respond in full if 
the Commission should accept Rais's December 16, 1996 filing.
    In light of the circumstances described in Rais's December 16, 1996 
filing, and the fact that Rockingham has now received a copy of the 
filing, the filing is accepted. Any further answers to the allegations 
in that filing concerning Nolan's conflict of interest, or any other 
matter, must be made by December 19, 1997.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
