[Project No. 1893]

Public Service Company of New

Hampshire; Notice of Authorization for

Continued Project Operation

January 19, 2006.

On December 29, 2003, the Public

Service Company of New Hampshire,

licensee for the Merrimack River

Hydroelectric Project No. 1893, filed an

application for a new or subsequent

license pursuant to the Federal Power

Act (FPA) and the Commission’s

regulations there under. Project No.

1893 is located on the Merrimack River

PO 00000

Frm 00014

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

in Hillsborough and Merrimack

Counties, New Hampshire.

The license for Project No. 1893 was

issued for a period ending December 31,

2005. 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

under the terms and conditions of the

prior license until a new license is

issued, or the project is otherwise

disposed of as provided in section 15 or

any other applicable section of the FPA.

If the project’s prior license waived the

applicability of 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. 1893

is issued to the Public Service Company

of New Hampshire for a period effective

January 1, 2006 through December 31,

2006, 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 December 1, 2006,

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 the Public Service Company of New

Hampshire is authorized to continue

operation of the Merrimack River

Hydroelectric Project No. 1893 until

such time as the Commission acts on its

application for subsequent license.

Magalie R. Salas,

Secretary.
