The variance would be in effect from the date of Commission approval to November 15, 2010, and would include: (1) Releasing a minimum flow of 75 cubic feet per second (cfs) from the Hoist Reservoir, instead of 100 cfs required by the project license; and (2) operating the Hoist Development to maintain a target elevation of 1339.5 feet and a minimum of 1338.5 feet, instead of a target of 1341 and a minimum of 1339.5 feet as required by the license. Under the variance, UPPCO would hold the Silver Lake Reservoir at its current elevation (1,469.087 feet) in order to release all inflow to the downstream Hoist Reservoir. In addition, the 75 cfs minimum flow from the Hoist Reservoir would be maintained regardless of the Hoist Reservoir elevation. If conditions change such that the Hoist Reservoir revised target elevation could be maintained for at least 30 days, UPPCO would return to operation requirements of the project license. l.
