Tygart LLC; Notice of Intent To Prepare an Environmental 
Assessment

    On December 26, 2024, Tygart LLC filed an application to amend the 
license for the Tygart Hydroelectric Project No. 12613. The 
unconstructed project will be located at the U.S. Army Corps of 
Engineers' (Corps) Tygart Dam on the Tygart River in Taylor County, 
West Virginia. The project will occupy federal lands managed by the 
Corps.
    The licensee proposes the following design modifications to the 
unconstructed project: (1) reconfiguration of the project intake to 
include a fish exclusion net; (2) reconfiguration of the turbine units 
to include three vertical Kaplan turbines; and (3) reconfiguration of 
the powerhouse and penstock to accommodate modified turbine design. The 
proposed changes would not result in any changes to installed or 
hydraulic capacity of the project. On October 2, 2025, Commission staff 
issued a Notice of Application for Non-Capacity License Amendment 
Accepted for Filing, and Soliciting Comments, Motions to Intervene and 
Protests. No comments, motions to intervene, or protests were received 
in response to the Commission's notice.

environmental assessment (EA) under the National Environmental Policy 
Act (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) for the project.\1\ Commission staff plans 
to issue an EA by January 9, 2026. Revisions to the schedule may be 
made as appropriate. The EA will be issued for a 30-day comment period. 
All comments filed on the EA will be reviewed by staff and considered 
in the Commission's final decision on the proceeding.
