The Kennebunk Light and Power District has applied to surrender its license for the Lower Mousam Hydroelectric Project on the Mousam River in Maine. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) is preparing an Environmental Assessment (EA) to evaluate the impact of this license surrender. The deadline for completing the EA is now set for October 2, 2025. Any inquiries about this process can be directed to Diana Shannon at FERC.
Simple Explanation
The Kennebunk Light and Power District wants to stop using a big water machine that helps make electricity on a river, and special helpers from the government are checking to make sure it won't hurt the environment. They'll finish this check by October 2, 2025, and if anyone has questions, they can ask a person named Diana.
