[Project No. 15349-000]
At-Sea Development, LLC; Notice of Preliminary Permit Application
Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To Intervene, and
Competing Applications
On April 2, 2024, At-Sea Development, 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 Eastern Long Island
Sound Tidal Energy Project to be located in Eastern Long Island Sound
near the communities of East Marion and Greenport in Suffolk County,
New York. 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) 250- to
500-kilowatt
[[Page 45658]]
(kW) tidal turbines with rotor diameters from 42.7 to 55.8 feet; (2) 66
to 133 modules composed of three tidal turbines, each with a capacity
of 750 kW to 1.5 megawatts (MW), with a total installed capacity not
exceeding 100 MW; (3) a mooring foundation for each module measuring
111.5 by 75.5 feet, equipped with ballast and three tidal turbines; (4)
a 66-kilovolt transmission line connecting common hubs to suitable
shore landing sites in PSEG-Long Island's east end area of Suffolk
County; and (5) appurtenant facilities. The proposed project would have
an annual generation of 200,000 megawatt-hours.
