To extend the deadline for commencement of construction of a hydroelectric project involving the Gibson Dam. (Sec. 1) This bill authorizes the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to extend by six years the time period during which Gibson Dam Hydroelectric Company is required to commence construction on the Gibson Dam Hydroelectric Project located on the Sun River in Lewis, Clark, and Teton Counties, Montana. The six-year time period starts upon expiration of the last extension.

AI Summary

This bill allows the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), a government agency that regulates the interstate transmission of electricity, natural gas, and oil, to grant a six-year extension for the start of construction on a hydroelectric project at the Gibson Dam. This extension would begin after the current deadline for starting construction expires, and it applies to the Gibson Dam Hydroelectric Company, which is responsible for the project located on the Sun River in Montana. The bill specifically references Section 13 of the Federal Power Act, which sets deadlines for commencing construction of licensed hydroelectric projects.
