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

    On May 13, 2024, Hybrid Renewables 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 a hydropower project to be 
located at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' (Corps) Oologah Lake Dam 
near the Town of Oologah, in Rogers 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 Oologah Lake Dam Hydroelectric Project would consist 
of the following: (1) an steel extension to the existing dam's left 
outlet conduit that would house a control valve and connect to; (2) a 
19-foot-diameter, 228-foot-long steel penstock; (3) the penstock would 
split into two 16.5-foot-diameter, 58-foot-long and 49-foot-long 
penstocks before entering; (4) an 80-foot-long, 19-foot-wide, 
powerhouse containing two turbine-generator units with a total capacity 
of 24.0 megawatts; (5) a 100-foot-long, 63-foot-wide concrete tailrace; 
and (6) a .37-mile-long, 138 kilovolt transmission line with a new 
substation at its end. The proposed project would have an estimated 
annual generation of 64,600 megawatt-hours.
