Hydropower Licensing Timeline and Cost Dataset

This dataset provides timeline dates, lengths, project characteristics, license characteristics, and costs of hydropower licensing and relicensing for 107 randomly selected hydropower projects that have been issued licenses since 1 October 2005. Projects included in this dataset were licensed but not necessarily constructed. These data were analyzed and presented in Chapters 3 (timeline data) and 5 (cost data) of the Levine et al. (2021) report

FERC Licensing Proceeding Environmental Study Determination Letter

This dataset summarized the back-and-forth of study submittals and issuances from Aldrovandi et al. (2021) for seven licensed hydropower projects presented as case studies in Aldrovandi et al. (2021), leveraging information from six of the seven case study projects documented in Pracheil et al. (2019), Sci Tot Env 687: 1245-1260. This information was mined from documents containing information on environmental studies conducted for US federal hydropower licensing. Documents included were found in the FERC eLibrary and was summarized and presented in Aldrovandi et al. (2021). A description of the types of documents used in this dataset can be found in Aldrovandi et al. (2021).
