    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 whose name appears 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 applicant proposes to formally 
change the Project operating regime from ``modified'' peaking to run-
of-river mode and to eliminate the top one-foot flashboard section from 
the spillway, which typically is installed for a limited seasonal 
period during the summer. Historically the project was operated in a 
daily peaking mode with maximum daily drawdowns of approximately two 
feet. The Licensee has not utilized peaking operations for many years 
and is therefore proposing to eliminate peaking operations and formally 
amend the license to require run-of-river operations, except when 
whitewater flow releases are provided, and during temporary 
modification of operations for maintenance or emergency operations.
    l. Locations of the Application: This filing may be viewed on the 
Commission's website at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary''
