    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

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. 6904 is issued to 
Battenkill Hydro Associates for a period effective February 1, 2026, 
through January 31, 2027, 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 January 31, 2027, 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 Battenkill Hydro Associates is authorized to continue 
operation of the Upper Greenwich 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.
