the instructions on the Commission's Web site (http://www.ferc.gov)

Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426. Please include the project number 
(P-10808-043) on any comments or motions filed.
    The Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure require all

list for the project. Further, if an intervener files comments or

motion to intervene must also be served upon each representative of the

    k. Description of Request: The licensee requests a temporary 
variance from article 403, the bypass flow requirement, at the 
Edenville spillway for the 5 or 6 weeks it will take to construct the

shutting off the bypass flow will allow them to accomplish their work 
in the dry and eliminate the need for cofferdams, thus reducing the 
potential for contamination downstream.
