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

May 11, 2010.
    On April 13, 2010 Lock+ Hydro Friends Fund VIII filed an 
application for a preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the 
Federal Power Act, proposing to study the feasibility of the Domage 
Project, located on the Mississippi River, in Lincoln County, Missouri 
and Calhoun County, Illinois. 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: (1) One lock frame module of 
ten hydropower turbines, which will be installed in a single row; (2) a 
new gate; (3) a proposed 4.5-mile-long, 69-kilovolt transmission line; 
(4) flow control door assemblies; and (5) appurtenant facilities. The 
proposed Domage Project would have an average annual generation of 
52.705 gigawatt-hours.
    Applicant Contact: Wayne F. Krouse, Chairman & CEO, Hydro Green 
Energy, LLC, 5090 Richmond Ave., 390, Houston, Texas, 77056.

applications (without notices of intent), or notices of intent to file
