    j. Deadline for filing comments, motions to intervene, and protests 
is 30 days from the issuance date of this notice by the Commission. The 
Commission strongly encourages electronic filing. Please file motions 
to intervene, protests, or comments using the Commission's eFiling 
system at http://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/efiling.asp. Commenters can 
submit brief comments up to 6,000 characters, without prior 
registration, using the eComment system at http://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/ecomment.asp. You must include your name and contact information 
at the end of your comments. For assistance, please contact FERC Online

(202) 502-8659 (TTY). In lieu of electronic filing, please send a paper 
copy to: Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First 
Street NE., Washington, DC 20426. The first page of any filing should 
include the project number (P-12766-005).
    k. Description of Request: Green Mountain Power Corporation (Green 
Mountain) proposes to delete from the project license a section of the 
existing 12.5-kilovolt (kV) transmission line. Specifically, the 
amendment proposal would remove a 3.525-mile-long section of the 
approximately 6-mile-long transmission line, thereby reducing the total 
transmission line length to 2.276 miles.
    As currently licensed, the 12.5-kV transmission line extends 
approximately 6 miles from Pole 115, via Pole 62x, to the Quechee 
substation. Green Mountain plans to interconnect a 150-kilowatt net-
metered solar electric generator at Pole 62x. As a result, the 3.525-
mile-long section of transmission line from Pole 62x to the Quechee 
substation would become necessary to transmit power from the solar 
generation project. Green Mountain, therefore, proposes to delete that 
section of transmission line from the project license.
    l. Locations of the Application: A copy of the application is 
available for inspection and reproduction at the Commission's Public 
Reference Room, located at 888 First Street NE., Room 2A, Washington,

comments, a protest, or a motion to intervene in accordance with the 
requirements of Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.210, .211,
