The Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, to which was
referred the bill (S. 215) to authorize the Federal Energy Regu-
latory Commission to issue an order continuing a stay of a hydro-
electric license for the Mahoney Lake hydroelectric project in the
State of Alaska, and for other purposes, having considered the

PURPOSE
The purpose of S. 215 is to direct the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission (Commission) to issue an order continuing a stay of a
hydroelectric license for the Mahoney Lake hydroelectric project in
the State of Alaska.
BACKGROUND AND NEED
The Mahoney Lake Hydroelectric Project was first proposed in
the 1990s as a 9.6 megawatt lake-tap project. In 2002, Congress di-
rected the Commission to grant a stay for the project's construction
until not later than six years after the Commission received writ-
ten notice that the Swan-Tyee electrical transmission intertie was
completed. The Commission received written notice of the comple-
tion of the Swan-Tyee electrical transmission intertie on October 4,
2011, thus requiring the Commission to lift the stay no later than
October 4, 2017.
