FERC Gives Nod to St Marys Water Hydropower Project

## Summary

The St. Marys Area Water Authority wants to build a small hydropower project at their water treatment plant in Pennsylvania that can generate 18 kilowatts of clean energy without messing with the water’s main job—serving the town. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) says this project looks good so far and is asking the public to share their thoughts or get involved by a certain deadline. This could mean greener power and a smarter use of water pipes for the community soon!
