Comments emailed to Commission staff 

are not considered part of the

The Commission’s Rules of Practice 

and Procedure require all intervenors 

filing documents with the Commission 

to serve a copy of that document on 

each person on the official service list 

for the project. Further, if an intervenor 

files comments or documents with the 

Commission relating to the merits of an 

issue that may affect the responsibilities 

of a particular resource agency, they 

must also serve a copy of the document 

on that resource agency. 

k. Description of Request: The 

licensee plans to perform a series of 

maintenance activities at the project that 

would require temporary variances in 

reservoir elevation and flow 

requirements contained in its license. 

The work would require a reservoir 

drawdown from mid-April to November 

2019, deviating from the requirements 

of article 402. Flow would continue to 

be released downstream of the project. 

However, recreational flows in the east 

channel that are required by article 403 

would cease because of the reduction in 

reservoir elevations during the 

drawdown. Deviations from these 

license requirements are necessary to 

complete the planned work. The 

licensee included with its filing a 

reservoir drawdown plan, as required by 

article 405. The licensee also included 

documentation of consultation with 

various parties, including the city of 

Wausau, National Park Service, U.S. 

Fish and Wildlife Service, Wisconsin 

Department of Natural Resources, and 

the Wisconsin State Historic 

Preservation Office. 

l. Locations of the Application: A 

copy of the application is available for 

inspection and reproduction at the 

Commission’s Public Reference Room, 

located at 888 First Street NE, Room 2A, 

Washington, DC 20426, or by calling
