Summary: FERC will participate in a Section 106 Consultation Meeting on the Lowell Hydroelectric Project P-2790 (Lowell, MA)
Description: FERC staff will participate in a meeting with staff from the U.S. Department of the Interior, the National Park Service, the Massachusetts State Historic Preservation Officer, the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation, Boott Hydropower, Inc., and any other consulting parties for the section 106 process for the proposed license amendment application for the Lowell Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. 2790-055). Currently, the Commission is reviewing an amendment application for the project to replace the wooden flashboards with a pneumatic crest gate system on the Pawtucket Dam.

Interested members of the public may attend and observe the meeting, but participation is limited to the applicant and agencies involved in the section 106 consultation process.
