Eagle Creek Schoolfield and the City of Danville have applied to relicense the 4.5-megawatt Schoolfield Hydroelectric Project on the Dan River in Virginia. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission plans to create an Environmental Assessment (EA) to evaluate the potential environmental impacts of the project. The EA will be open for a 30-day public comment period, allowing all interested parties to share their opinions. Public participation is encouraged, and assistance is available through the Commission's Office of Public Participation.
Simple Explanation
Eagle Creek and Danville want to keep using water power from a river to make electricity. The government will check if this will hurt nature and let people say what they think.
