curve pursuant to article 407 of the project license.

    e. Name of Project: Buzzard's Roost Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. 
1267).

Greenwood, Laurens and Newberry Counties, South Carolina..

and 799 and 801.
    h. Applicant Contact: Mr. Charles M. Watson Jr., County Attorney,

    i. FERC Contact: Any questions on this notice should be addressed 
to B. Peter Yarrington at (202) 502-6129.
    j. Deadline for filing comments and or motions: January 26, 2009.
    k. Description of Application: Because of ongoing drought 
conditions, the applicant seeks approval to temporarily amend article 
407 of its project license to revise the schedule for management of 
lake levels (rule curve). Under the rule curve, the reservoir level is 
raised to an elevation of 439 feet mean sea level (msl) by April 15 
each year. Beginning on September 1, the reservoir level is then 
reduced until it reaches 437 feet msl by October 1. The level is then 
maintained at 437 feet msl until January 1, when it is reduced to 434.5 
feet msl by February 1. At that time, the reservoir level is increased 
and the annual cycle is repeated. The licensee proposes to forgo the 
reservoir level reduction from 437 feet msl to 434.5 feet msl that 
would normally occur from January 1 to February 1, 2009, and would then 
refill the reservoir to the summer elevation of 439 feet msl by March 
15, 2009, rather than waiting until April 15.
    l. Locations of the Application: A copy of the application is 
available for inspection and reproduction at the Commission's Public
