Igiugig Village Council; Notice of Preliminary Permit Application 
Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To Intervene, and 
Competing Applications

August 20, 2009.
    On August 10, 2009, Igiugig Village Council filed an application 
for a preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the Federal Power 
Act, proposing to study the feasibility of the Igiugig RISEC Water 
Power Project (Igiugig Project or project), located on the Kvichak 
River in the Lake and Peninsula Borough, Alaska. 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 project would consist of the following: (1) Up to 12 
proposed RISEC kinetic energy-to-electrical energy conversion devices 
having a total installed capacity of 40 kilowatts; (2) a proposed 3-
phase, 480-volt transmission line either 300 feet long or 4,000 feet 
long (depending on the location of the RISEC devices) to interconnect 
with the Igiugig Village Council's existing electric distribution 
system; and (3) appurtenant facilities. The proposed project would have 
an estimated average annual generation of 250 megawatt-hours.
