Bevill Hydroelectric, LLC; Notice of Preliminary Permit 
Application Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To 
Intervene, and Competing Applications

    On May 30, 2025, Bevill Hydroelectric, 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 a hydropower project 
to be located at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' (Corps) Tom Bevill 
Lock and Dam, on the Tennessee Tombigbee Waterway, near the City of 
Pickensville, Pickens County, Alabama. 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 Tom Bevill Lock and Dam Hydroelectric Project would 
consist of the following: (1) a 50-foot-wide, 50-foot-long intake 
structure; (2) a 50-foot-wide, 190-foot-long reinforced concrete 
powerhouse located adjacent to western abutment within the spillway, 
containing one 12.5-megawatt, pit style turbine generator; (3) a 50-
foot-long, 50-foot-wide dredged tailrace channel that would direct flow 
to the river downstream from the dam; and (4) a 1.3 mile-long, 69-
kilovolt transmission line. The proposed project would have an 
estimated annual generation of 59.6 gigawatt-hours.
