City of North Little Rock; Notice of Preliminary Permit 
Application Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To 
Intervene, and Competing Applications

    On June 28, 2021, the City of North Little Rock filed an 
application for a preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the 
Federal Power Act, proposing to study the feasibility of the Toad Suck 
Ferry Lock & Dam Hydroelectric Project No. 15226-000 (Toad Suck Ferry 
Project, or project), a run-of-river project to be located at the 
existing U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Toad Suck Ferry Lock and Dam in 
Faulkner County, Arkansas. 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) An 
existing reservoir with a maximum water surface elevation of 265.3 feet 
mean sea level; (2) an existing, 1,450-foot-long lock and dam, 
including a 1,120-foot-long spillway section with 16, 60-foot-long by 
27-foot-high tainter gates; (3) a new headrace intake channel; (4) a 
new concrete powerhouse housing one, 40-megawatt horizontal turbine-
generator unit; (5) a new discharge penstock; (6) a new tailrace 
receiving flow from the penstock; (7) a new interconnection line to 
either the existing, 69 kilo-Volt (kV) Bigelow substation, or the 
existing, 115-kV Mayflower substation; and (8) appurtenant facilities.
