Resolute Marine Energy, Inc.; Notice of Preliminary Permit Application Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To Intervene, and Competing Applications
On July 25, 2012, Resolute Marine Energy, Inc. (Resolute or Applicant) filed an application for a preliminary permit under section 4(f) of the Federal Power Act proposing to study the feasibility of the Yakutat Alaska Wave Energy Project No. 14438. Resolute supplemented its application on September 19, 2012. The proposed project would be located within a 25.26 square mile area within Alaska State submerged lands in the Gulf of Alaska, near the City and Borough of Yakutat, Alaska.
A preliminary permit does not authorize the permit holder to perform any land-disturbing activities or otherwise enter upon lands or waters owned by others without the owners' express permission.
The proposed project would consist of: (1) Between 7 and 15 Surge Wave Energy Converters for a maximum total installed capacity of 750 kilowatts; (2) a single transmission line to bring project power to shore; (3) shore-based power conditioning equipment, transformers, and voltage regulations facilities; and (5) appurtenant facilities. The project would have an estimated annual generation of 3,942 megawatthours.
