FLTF has agreement in principle with EGLE on the permitting of the Sanford Dam. The updated permit documents, based on EGLE’s comments, will be submitted next week, and we are expecting to be declared “Administratively Complete” so we can go to public comment in April. We will request a public hearing on this.
Sanford Dam does not have a FEMA or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) requirement, but the permit will be “red filed” to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), which has a 90-day review period. We feel we can start to mobilize work, and that there is some pull-head work we may do as an option.
We expect bid opening on April 21, which will give us a view of the total Sanford costs at that time, however these costs will not likely be finally negotiated by the April 26th meeting.
