FERC terminated the 0.9-megawatt license for the Au Train Hydroelectric Project in Michigan, citing 'implied surrender' due to UP Hydro, LLC's abandonment of operations and ongoing safety violations. The decision, effective December 29, 2025, follows UP Hydro's bankruptcy in 2023 and years of non-compliance with safety regulations, transferring regulatory authority for the dam's decommissioning to Michigan.
