    k. Description of Request: The licensee requests a variance from 
Article 418 which requires, in part, the licensee to operate and 
maintain the Tugalo Park recreation site. As part of a hydro 
modernization program, the licensee is planning to replace several 
plant systems, including the turbines and generators, spillway gates, 
control system, and associated auxiliary equipment, at the Tugalo dam 
and powerhouse. Due to the rugged terrain and limited access in the 
area, the licensee would bring the heavy equipment and materials needed 
for the modernization work through the Yonah Lake and use the Tugalo 
Park area for construction staging. For safety and security reasons, 
the licensee is proposing to temporarily close the park to public 
access, starting October 1, 2021 for up to five years (October 2026). 
Following completion of the modernization work, the licensee would 
replace the existing recreation facilities (10 primitive campsites, 
restrooms, and a boat ramp). There are other nearby recreation sites 
and opportunities that would be available to the public during the time 
of the site closure.
