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

    On February 4, 2022, Lock+TM Hydro Friends Fund XI, LLC 
filed an application for a preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f) 
of the Federal Power Act (FPA), proposing to study the feasibility of 
the Lock and Dam No. 25 Hydropower Project to be located on the 
Mississippi River and near the City of Winfield, Missouri 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 the following: (1) a 210-
foot-long by 40-foot-wide reinforced concrete headrace; (2) a 210-foot-
long by 40-foot-wide by 50-foot-high submersible reinforced concrete 
powerhouse containing seven 10-megawatt (MW) turbines; (3) seven 
submersible 10-MW generators rated at 6.9 kilovolts (kV) or 13 kV; (4) 
50-foot-wide by 210-foot-long draft tubes; (5) 40-foot-wide by 210-
foot-long reinforced concrete tailrace; (6) a 25-foot by 50-foot 
switchyard; (7) a 4.45-mile-long, 6.9-kV or 13-kV transmission line 
connecting to an existing transmission system; and (8) appurtenant 
facilities. The estimated annual generation of the Lock and Dam No. 25 
Hydropower would be 307,000 megawatt-hours.
