    Reading Time:about 4 minutes

    The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) is reviewing an application from the Central Nebraska Public Power and Irrigation District to amend the project boundary of the Kingsley Dam Hydroelectric Project. The amendment aims to adjust the boundaries by adding around 3,400 acres and removing about 900 acres, which results in a net increase of 2,500 acres. This change is proposed to better align with project usage needs, including public access and recreation. Individuals interested in commenting, protesting, or intervening in this process must do so by March 11, 2021, following FERC's submission guidelines.

    Simple Explanation

    The FERC is asking people to share their thoughts on whether to change the size of a water project area in Nebraska, adding more land for public fun and taking some away. If anyone wants to say something about it, they need to do so by March 11, 2021.
