Porter said the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) requires, as part of the licensing, projects to have a recreation plan. The city filed its recreation plan in July 2009, which outlined the construction, operation, and maintenance of the facilities. This included an access road and parking area to a recreation area complete with restrooms and pier access at the Big Snag Creek sandbar. Also included is a picnic area, a walking path and shoreline access. The Meldahl Hydroelectric Facility is a joint venture between the city of Hamilton and the non-profit corporation AMP, which serves a consortium of electric-generating and/or distributing cities in several states, including Ohio.
