navigable waterway; (2) would occupy
or affect public lands or reservations of
the United States; (3) would utilize
surplus water or water power from a
government dam; or (4) if applicable,
has involved or would involve any
construction subsequent to 1935 that
may have increased or would increase
the project’s head or generating
capacity, or have otherwise significantly
modified the project’s pre-1935 design
or operation.

k. Description of Request:
Warrensburg Hydro Power Limited
Partnership (licensee) is requesting a
temporary variance of the reservoir
elevation requirement stipulated in the
Warrensburg Hydroelectric Project
license to complete maintenance work.
The south abutment or berm wall area
of the project exhibits leakage that began
shortly after the completion of the
project in 1988. Based on continual
leakage monitoring programs, numerous
leakage mitigation measures have taken
place over the years. The mitigation
measures appear to have managed or
controlled the situation; however,
undesirable leakage continues. Based on
the findings of two independent
engineering assessments, the integrity of
the south berm wall is not believed to
be compromised in its current
condition. Nevertheless, based on
VerDate Aug<31>2005
18:23 Jun 27, 2007
Jkt 211001
recommendations, the licensee would
like to proceed in implementing a plan
(begun in 2005) to correct the leakage
situation. The work activities would
require the reservoir to be drawn down
as similarly done in 2005 and 2006. The
proposed schedule indicates the draw
down to commence on July 31 and the
construction work to occur over a four
to six week period.
l. Location of the Application: The
filing is available for inspection and

Public Reference Room, located at 888
