[Project No. 13997-000]


Richard A. Glover, Jr.; Notice of Preliminary Permit Application 
Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To Intervene, and 
Competing Applications

    On January 10, 2011, Richard A. Glover, Jr. filed an application 
for a preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the Federal Power 
Act (FPA), proposing to study the feasibility of the East Branch Dam 
Hydroelectric Project to be located on the East Branch of the Clarion 
River in Jones Township, Elk County, Pennsylvania. 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 utilize the existing U.S. Army Corps of 
Engineers' East Branch Dam and would consist of the following: (1) One 
turbine and generator unit rated at 500 kilowatts; (2) a new 
powerhouse; (3) a 100-foot-long pipe between the outlet works and the 
powerhouse; (4) a 50-foot-long discharge pipe; (5) a 50-foot-long 
transmission line; and (6) appurtenant facilities. The estimated annual 
generation of the East Branch Dam Hydroelectric Project would be 377 
megawatt-hours.
    Applicant Contact: Richard A. Glover, Jr., 6834 Grant Road, 
Ridgeway, PA 15853; phone: (814) 772-4721.

    Deadline for filing comments, motions to intervene, competing

competing applications may be filed electronically via the Internet.
