free), or (202) 502-8659 (TTY). In lieu of electronic filing, you may
submit a paper copy. Submissions sent via the U.S. Postal Service must
be addressed to: Kimberly D. Bose, Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission, 888 First Street NE, Room 1A, Washington, DC 20426.
Submissions sent via any other carrier must be addressed to: Kimberly
D. Bose, Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 12225 Wilkins
Avenue, Rockville, Maryland 20852. The first page of any filing should
include the docket number P-2722-024. Comments emailed to Commission
staff are not considered part of the Commission record.
The Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure require all
intervenors filing documents with the Commission to serve a copy of
that document on each person whose name appears on the official service
list for the project. Further, if an intervenor files comments or
documents with the Commission relating to the merits of an issue that
may affect the responsibilities of a particular resource agency, they
must also serve a copy of the document on that resource agency.
k. Description of Request: PacifiCorp, licensee for the Pioneer
Hydroelectric Project No. 2722, filed a request with the Commission for
an extension of the 30-year project license that currently expires on
August 31, 2030. Pursuant to 18 CFR 5.5(d), a licensee must submit its
notice of intent (NOI) to relicense the project at least five years
prior to the expiration of a project license, which would be August 31,
2025, for the Pioneer project. On September 10, 2024, PacifiCorp filed
an application to surrender the project license and convert the project
to a conduit exemption, for which the Commission issued a Notice of
Application on May 15, 2025. In order to allow the Commission to
process the surrender and conversion to conduit exemption and not
confuse the proceeding with a NOI for relicensing, PacifiCorp requests
to extend its license term by one year, or a period of time deemed
appropriate and sufficient by the Commission to allow for the
processing of the application for surrender and conduit exemption.
l. Locations of the Application: This filing may be viewed on the
Commission's website at <a href="http://www.ferc.gov">http://www.ferc.gov</a> using the ``eLibrary''

requirements of Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.210, .211,
.214, respectively. In determining the appropriate action to take, the

applicant and the project number of the application to which the filing
responds; (3) furnish the name, address, and telephone number of the
