k. Description of Request: The Kings 

River Conservation District (KRCD), 

filed an application for a non-capacity 

amendment of the license to add a 6.3 

megawatt generating unit. The existing 

project license authorizes the KRCD to 

utilize three penstocks installed in the 

U.S. Army Core of Engineers, Pine Flat 

Dam. The Jeff L. Taylor Powerhouse, 

located at the toe of the dam, contains 

three 55 MW Francis turbines, and 

generates electricity with run of the 

river flows ranging from 500 to 8,000 

cubic feet per second (cfs). To maintain 

downstream cold water flows, a nonproject bypass system releases 900 cfs 

when the penstocks are not open. KRCD 

proposes to add an additional 

generating unit to the bypass system 

that would increase generation capacity 

from 165 MW by 3.8% to a total of 171.3 

MW. This generator would allow for 

power generation at flows below 500 

cfs. 

l. Locations of the Application: This 

filing may be viewed on the

Procedure, 18 CFR 385.210, .211, and
