The amendment removed the section outlining the obligation of the licensee for payment of annual charges under the Federal Power Act, which was tied to the expiration of the time period for commencing construction of the project. Additionally, it modified the title of the subsequent section to indicate that it pertains to the reinstatement of an expired license. This change adjusts how the obligations of the licensee are defined and may impact the regulatory framework concerning project construction and licensing.
