[Project No. 2373-000]


Notice of Authorization for Continued Project Operation; Midwest 
Hydro, LLC

    The license for the Rockton Hydroelectric Project No. 2373 was 
issued for a period ending August 31, 2024.
    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. 2373 is issued to 
Midwest Hydro, LLC for a period effective September 1, 2024, through 
August 31, 2025, 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, 2025, 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 Midwest Hydro, LLC is authorized to continue 
operation of the Rockton Hydroelectric Project under the terms and 
conditions of the prior license until the issuance of a subsequent 
license for the project or other disposition under the FPA, whichever 
comes first.

    Dated: September 13, 2024.
Debbie-Anne A. Reese,
Acting Secretary.
