Many NHA members have recently shared concerns regarding the number of License Amendments being required by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s Division of Hydropower Administration and Compliance (FERC DHAC). The general issue is this is an onerous process that takes time and delays project improvements and facility safety work at existing projects.
In order for NHA to develop a strategy, we first need to compile information to more clearly define the problem, identify trends, look for best practices, etc.
There are three sections we ask you to provide information about: 1) License Amendment Project Specific Examples; 2) Challenges related to Variances; and 3) Examples on other types of Amendments.
THIS SURVEY WILL CLOSE ON TUESDAY JULY 9, 2024
NHA may share your results with regulators unless you need us to keep your results confidential. Contact Sydney Rovner (sydney@hydro.org) with any questions or concerns.
