Lock+\TM\ Hydro Friends Fund XVI, LLC; Notice of Preliminary 
Permit Application Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions 
To Intervene, and Competing Applications

September 15, 2009.
    On June 9, 2009, Lock+\TM\ Hydro Friends Fund XVI, LLC filed an 
application for a preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the 
Federal Power Act, proposing to study the feasibility of the Granny 
Smith Project, located on the Verdigris River, in Wagoner County, 
Oklahoma. 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) 2 lock frame modules; (2) 18 hydropower turbines; (3) flow 
control doors; (4) a conduit; (5) transmission line; and (6) 
appurtenant facilities. The proposed Granny Smith Project would have an 
average annual generation of 284,018,400 kilowatt-hours.
