[Project No. 3102-000]
Jason and Carol Victoria Presley; Notice of Authorization for
Continued Project Operation
On September 12, 2017, Jason and Carol Victoria Presley, licensees
for the High Shoals Hydroelectric Project No. 3102, filed a Notice of
Intent to File Subsequent License Application for the project, and on
November 1, 2017, they filed a Preliminary Application Document. On
August 27, 2019, they filed a Notice of Intent to Surrender the project
followed by an application for Surrender of License on November 7,
2019. The High Shoals Hydroelectric Project is located on the Apalachee
River in Walton, Morgan, and Oconee Counties, Georgia.
The license for Project No. 3102 was issued for a period ending
August 31, 2021. Section 15(a)(1) of the FPA, 16 U.S.C. 808(a)(1),
requires the Commission, at the expiration of a license term, to issue
from year-to-year an annual license to the then licensee(s) under the
terms and conditions of the prior license until a new license is
issued, or the project is otherwise disposed of as provided in section
15 or any other applicable section of the FPA. If the project's prior
license waived the applicability of section 15 of the FPA, then, based
on section 9(b) of the Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. 558(c),
and as set forth at 18 CFR 16.21(a), if the licensee of such project
has filed an application for a subsequent license, the licensee may
continue to operate the project in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the license after the minor or minor part license
expires, until the Commission acts on its application. If the licensee
of such a project has not filed an application for a subsequent
license, then it may be required, pursuant to 18 CFR 16.21(b), to
continue project operations until the Commission issues someone else a
license for the project or otherwise orders disposition of the project.
If the project is subject to section 15 of the FPA, notice is
hereby given that an annual license for Project No. 3102 is issued to
Jason and Carol Victoria Presley for a period effective September 1,
2021 through August 31, 2022 or until the issuance of a new license for
the project or other disposition under the FPA, whichever comes first.
If issuance of a new license (or other disposition) does not take place
on or before August 31, 2022, notice is hereby given that, pursuant to
18 CFR 16.18(c), an annual license under section 15(a)(1) of the FPA is
renewed automatically without further order or notice by the
Commission, unless the Commission orders otherwise.
If the project is not subject to section 15 of the FPA, notice is
hereby given that Jason and Carol Victoria Presley are authorized to
continue operation of the High Shoals Hydroelectric Project, until such
time as the Commission takes final action on the application for
Surrender of License.
Dated: September 14, 2021.
Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
