DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No. 2513-091]
Green Mountain Power Corporation; Notice of Revised Procedural
Schedule
This notice revises the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's
(Commission) schedule for processing the relicense application for the
Essex No. 19 Hydroelectric Project No. 2513, which was filed by Green
Mountain Power Corporation (GMP) on February 28, 2023. On March 6,
2023, Commission staff issued a notice of application tendered for
filing, which included an initial processing schedule.
On April 21, 2023, Commission staff issued a determination on
requested modifications to the project's study plan, pursuant to
section 5.15(c)(7) of the Commission's regulations. The determination
amended the study plan to require that GMP file a study report for a
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Modeling Study by December 31, 2023.
GMP filed the study report on April 8, 2024. Then, on October 16, 2024,
GMP filed additional information on downstream salmon passage and
stated that it would file any proposed relicensing measures for
improving fish passage after consultation with resource agencies. On
December 18, 2024, GMP filed letters with the Commission describing the
status of ongoing consultation with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
(FWS) and the Vermont Agency of Natural Resources (Vermont ANR). GMP
stated that it would file quarterly updates on the status of the
development of fish passage alternatives until an alternative was
selected by GMP and the resource agencies. GMP filed its most recent
quarterly update on September 30, 2025, indicating that it is actively
consulting with FWS and Vermont ANR to identify a downstream fish
passage alternative for its relicensing proposal.
By this notice, Commission staff is updating the procedural
schedule. The revised schedule is shown below. Further revisions to the
schedule may be made as appropriate.
