6076.
    j. Deadline for Filing Comments, Motions to Intervene and Protest: 
June 19, 2006.
    k. Description of Application: The licensee is requesting an 
amendment of license regarding the minimum flow requirements for the 
bypassed reach as specified in Article 35. Currently, Article 35 
requires the release of 75 cubic feet per second (cfs) or inflow 
whichever is less August 1 through April 30 and 150 cfs or inflow 
whichever is less May 1 through July 31. The licensee is requesting 
that it be allowed to release 75 cfs or inflow whichever is less year 
round. The results of studies conducted by the licensee indicate that 
75 cfs provides adequate protection for the aquatic resources in the 
bypassed reach. Implementation of the Aquatic Mitigation Plan under 
Article 37 may no longer be necessary with any release of a permanent 
75 cfs year round flow. The licensee has filed an application to amend 
the Water Quality Certificate with the Washington Department of 
Ecology.
    l. Location of the Application: The filing is available for 
inspection and review at the Commission's Public Reference Room, 
located at 888 First Street, NE., Room 2A, Washington, DC 20426 or by
