White Pine Waterpower, LLC; Notice of Revised Schedule for White
Pine Pumped Storage Project
This notice revises the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's
(Commission) schedule for processing White Pine Waterpower, LLC's
(White Pine) license application for the White Pine Pumped Storage
Project. A prior notice issued on March 3, 2025, identified an
anticipated schedule for issuance of draft and final National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) documents and a final order for the
project. After the issuance of that notice, White Pine requested an
extension of time to complete its hydrogeologic study with a final
study report to be filed by January 31, 2027. Commission staff issued a
letter approving the extension of time on March 10, 2026. To account
for the additional time needed for White Pine to complete the study and
file the study report, the application will be processed according to
the following revised schedule.
Notice of Ready for Environmental Analysis: April 2027.
Draft NEPA Document: January 2028.
Final NEPA Document: July 21, 2028.
The project is covered under Title 41 of the Fixing America's
Surface Transportation Act (FAST-41). Under FAST-41, agencies are to
publish completion dates for all federal environmental reviews and
authorizations. This notice identifies the Commission's anticipated
schedule for issuance of the final order for the project, which is
based on the revised issuance date for the final NEPA document. We
currently anticipate issuing the final order for the project no later
than:
Issuance of Final Order--October 19, 2028
If a schedule change becomes necessary, additional notice will be
provided so that interested parties and government agencies are kept
informed of the project's progress.
(Authority: 18 CFR 2.1)
Dated: March 11, 2026.
Carlos D. Clay,
Deputy Secretary.
