Milford Hydro, LLC; Notice of Preliminary Permit Application 
Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To Intervene, and 
Competing Applications

    On April 19, 2012, Milford Hydro, 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 Milford Dam Hydroelectric 
Project, which would be located on the Republican River, in Geary 
County, Kansas. 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) A powerhouse; (2) 
installation of two 1.85-megawatt propeller type turbines; (3) a 
proposed 4,440-foot-long, 12.7-kilovolt transmission line; (4) a 30-
foot-long bifurcation structure equipped with three slide gates; (5) a 
160-foot-long penstock; and (6) appurtenant facilities. The proposed 
Milford Dam Hydroelectric Project would have an estimated average 
annual generation of 20.917 gigawatt-hours.
