BILLING CODE 6717–01–P

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory

Commission

Environmental, LLC (Rainer) for a

preliminary permit under section 4(f) of

the Federal Power Act 1 to study the

proposed Tapps Lake Dam

Hydroelectric Project No. 12767, to be

located at Puget Sound Energy, Inc.’s

Lake Tapps Dam on the White River in

Sumner, Pierce County, Washington.

The application was rejected for failure

to include a readable map showing a

project boundary enclosing all proposed

project facilities.2 On April 19, 2007,

Rainier requested rehearing of the

Commission’s decision to reject their

application.

Rainer does not attribute any errors to

staff’s rejection of its application, but

instead proffers assertedly appropriate

January 18, 2007, Commission staff notified Rainer

of the deficiency in its application and gave Rainer

45 days to file an appropriate map to cure the

deficiency. Rainier timely filed additional maps on

February 28, 2007. However, Commission staff’s

March 20, 2007 letter found that the newlysubmitted maps also failed to meet the

requirements of section 4.81(d).

Section 313(a) of the Federal Power

aggrieved party to file its request for

rehearing within 30 days after the

issuance of the Commission order and

to set forth specifically the ground or

grounds upon which such request is

based. Rainier’s rehearing request raises

no specific allegations of error with

respect to the staff’s order. Therefore, it

must be rejected.3
