free), or (202) 502-8659 (TTY). In lieu of electronic filing, you may 
submit a paper copy. Submissions sent via the U.S. Postal Service must

Commission, 888 First Street NE, Room 1A, Washington, DC 20426. 
Submissions sent via any other carrier must be addressed to: Kimberly 
D. Bose, Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 12225 Wilkins

staff are not considered part of the Commission record.
    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: Lock 14 Hydro Partners, LLC requests 
approval for an amendment to the license for the Heidelberg 
Hydroelectric Project. Lock 14 Hydro Partners, LLC is proposing to use 
6 Voith StreamDivers (submersible turbine-generators) with a total 
generating capacity of 3.03 megawatts

[[Page 45723]]

(MW) as opposed to the authorized 5 Voith submersible turbine-
generators with a total generating capacity of 2.64 MW. The proposed 6 
units would have a total hydraulic capacity of approximately 2,636 
cubic feet per second (cfs), as opposed to the total hydraulic capacity 
authorized for the 5 units of 2,295 cfs. The applicant states that this 
slight increase in the maximum hydraulic capacity should have no impact 
on fish entrainment since the inlet speed at the trashrack would still 
be well below the maximum inlet speed of 1.5 feet per second in the 
project license.
    l. Locations of the Application: The Commission provides all 
interested persons an opportunity to view and/or print the contents of 
this document via the internet through the Commission's website at
