(HEA), is filing this Draft License Application (DLA) for an original license for the Grant Lake Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. 13212 [Project or Grant Lake Project]) under Part I of the Federal Power Act. Exhibit C of this DLA describes the proposed schedule for development of the Project. Because no portion of the proposed Project consists of previously constructed, unlicensed water power structures or facilities, 18 CFR §4.41(d)(3) does not apply (see below). 2 Construction Schedule Construction of the Grant Lake Project will commence after the final issuance of a license from FERC, currently anticipated to occur in December 2016. The pre-construction activities such as equipment procurement and shop drawing preparation will begin at that time. Mobilization for field construction activities will begin in April 2018. Construction work for the Project will continue for 18 months followed by a two month startup and commissioning period. Construction milestones and other significant events related to the proposed construction of the Grant Lake Project are summarized in Figure C.2-1. 3 Commencement of Commercial Operation Consistent with the schedule outlined in Figure C.2-1, commercial operation of the Project would begin in January 2020. 4 Previously Constructed, Unlicensed Water Power Structures or Facilities The regulation 18 CFR §4.41(d)(3) does not apply because no portion of the proposed Project consists of previously constructed, unlicensed water power structures or facilities.
