The Chemical Market Analysis & Consulting Company, LLC; Notice of 
Preliminary Permit Application Accepted for Filing and Soliciting 
Comments, Motions To Intervene, and Competing Applications

    On August 11, 2022, The Chemical Market Analysis & Consulting 
Company, LLC, 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 Fitler Bend Hydrokinetic Energy Project to be 
located on the Mississippi River in Issaquena County, Mississippi, and 
East Carroll Parish, Louisiana. 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 Filter Bend Hydrokinetic Project would consist of: (1) 
2,000, 10 to 13 foot diameter, 750 kilowatt hydrokinetic turbine units 
arranged in arrays, typically two units wide and three units high, and 
generating power from the flow of the Mississippi River; (2) 
approximately 333 stand-alone pilings, installed in the river bottom, 
one for mounting each array; and (3) 34.6 kilovolt substations, 
constructed of masonry above the high-water mark of the riverbank, 
receiving power from the arrays, and interconnecting with potential 
industrial consumers. The total project would occupy much of the bottom 
of the Issaquena County, Mississippi side of an approximately 15 mile 
reach of Mississippi River. The project would have a total installed 
capacity of 1,500 megawatts and an average annual generation of 1.56 
million megawatt-hours.
