The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) has received a hydroelectric application from KEI (Maine) Power Management (I), LLC for the Eustis Hydroelectric Project in Maine. The application, which seeks a subsequent minor license, is available for public viewing and involves maintaining current project facilities and operations. Interested parties can submit additional study requests or apply for cooperating agency status until January 26, 2025. The project consists of a dam, powerhouse, and associated facilities, and operates to protect local water quality and aquatic resources. The FERC encourages electronic filings and provides various resources for public engagement and participation in the application process.
Simple Explanation
The government is checking a plan from a company in Maine to keep running a small power plant by a river. People can tell the government if they think more studies are needed or join the project's planning team until January 26, 2025, so they can help protect fish and clean water in that area.
