Summary

BIF III Holtwood LLC wants to build docks on land and water near the Wallenpaupack Hydroelectric Project in Pennsylvania. This change could affect local communities and the environment, so the public has until March 9, 2026, to share their thoughts or raise concerns. No big money changes are mentioned yet, but the project needs approval before moving forward.

Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.

Community Docks: 7 More Boat Spots

The applicant (Big Woods I POA) asks permission to modify three existing community docks in Pike County, Pennsylvania to add capacity for seven additional watercraft, raising total dock capacity to 31 watercraft. The change is part of the Wallenpaupack Hydroelectric Project (Project No. 487-144) and must be approved by the Commission before it can proceed.

Changes Must Follow Shoreline Rules

The proposed dock modifications would conform to the project's approved Shoreline Management Plan and the Public Lake Use and Shoreline Use Permitting Policy for Lake Wallenpaupack. That means the changes are being reviewed against those existing shoreline and lake-use rules as part of the Commission filing.
