The proposed project would consist of:
(1)Installation of 50 NC Sea Dragon tidal turbines at a rated capacity of 100 kilowatts,
(2)an estimated 2.5 kilometers in length of additional transmission infrastructure, and
(3)appurtenant facilities. Initial estimated production would be a minimum of 17,520 megawatt hours per year with the installation of 50 units. *Applicant Contact:* Mr. Roger Bason, Natural Currents Energy Services, LLC, 24 Roxanne Boulevard, Highland, New York 12561,
