    k. Description of Project: Georgia Power Company, licensee for the 
Sinclair Dam Project, filed an application to amend the project's 
approved recreation plan. The approved plan requires the licensee to 
construct a fishing access site (access road, parking, and a 
handicapped accessible fishing pier) at Beaver Dam Creek. The approved 
plan concluded that the fishing access site would be easily accessible 
from Highway 441 (a major thoroughfare for access to the project 
reservoir) and would provide important fishing opportunities to local 
anglers. Based on opposition from property owners surrounding the site, 
the licensee requests that the required facilities (currently 
unconstructed) be deleted from the plan and that it be given one year 
to select an alternate site for the facilities and two years to design 
and construct the facilities at the new site.
    l. This notice also consists of the following standard paragraphs: 
B, C1, and D2.
    B. Comments, Protests, or Motions to Intervene--Anyone may submit 
comments, a protest, or a motion to

accordance with the Commission's Rules may become a party to the 
proceeding. Any comments, protests, or motions to intervene must be
