SAR INTL'A' : SRA Leads Colorado Small Hydropower Project through Streamlined FERC Review

Regulatory review trimmed from years to months while preserving environmental protections

FAIRFAX, Va., Sept. 19, 2011 - SRA International, Inc., a leading provider of technology and strategic consulting services and solutions to government organizations, today announced that its renewable energy team has successfully led a 23-kilowatt small hydropower project in rural Meeker, Colorado though a streamlined review process to receive a Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) exemption permit. Until now, this complex maze of regulatory reviews typically needed several years for completion.

This project was made possible by a grant from the Colorado Governor's Energy Office. It is the first project in the nation to use a new streamlined FERC pilot review process for small hydropower projects. The improved process reorganizes multi-agency reviews to occur in parallel rather than sequentially, and was accomplished in less than two months instead of years. Its success is being followed closely by other states.

"Typically, small hydropower projects are treated the same as large projects like the Hoover Dam, making the regulatory review process lengthy, and causing it to be financially burdensome for small developers like a rural rancher," said SRA Vice President Phil Rizzi. "This first project using the new streamlined FERC process is an excellent example of a process improvement that reduces the time required for federal regulatory review while maintaining environmental protections - and SRA is privileged to work on this activity in support of the Colorado Governor's Energy Office renewable energy mission."

This project and 20 similar small hydropower projects are being shepherded through the FERC process by the SRA renewable energy team, which provides technical assistance to renewable energy project developers. The program is expected to cut the time and money necessary to receive a federal permit by 50 percent, which can result in savings of up to $100,000 per project.

SRA also provides technical assistance for biomass, solar, distributed generation wind and geothermal projects that do not have the financial capabilities to move forward to a developer or investor stage without assistance. Currently, 15 Colorado projects are taking advantage of this opportunity. More information and technical assistance applications are available on the GEO website: www.colorado.gov/energy
