the powerhouse an additional 140-kilowatt (kW) generating unit coupled 
to the existing 80-kW unit, for a combined project installed capacity 
of 220 kW. The new unit will result in an increase of the project's 
hydraulic capacity from 6 to 15 cubic feet per second. The installation 
of the new unit will not require any physical changes to the project 
features since the powerhouse was designed to accommodate an additional 
generating unit. All work will occur within the existing powerhouse. 
The licensee is requesting the amendment to increase hatchery 
production at the project.
