k. Description of Request: The
licensee requests a temporary variance
to reduce minimum flows required by
article 105 of the project’s license. The
licensee states that water conditions in
the South Fork of the Stanislaus River
are critically dry, and requests that it be
allowed to reduce the minimum flow
released from Lyons Dam from 5 cubic
feet per second (cfs) to 1 cfs. Due to the
urgent nature of this request and the
potential to conserve water for later
municipal and instream flow purposes,
the Commission approved the licensee’s
request by order dated February 6, 2014.
The approved temporary variance
expires no later than March 15, 2014.
However, should the licensee request
another temporary variance due to
continued drought conditions once the
current variance expires, the
Commission will take into account any
comments received, intervention
requests, and protests received in its
analysis of any future variance request.
Based on responses received to this
notice, the Commission has also
reserved the right to modify its February
6, 2014 order.

k. Description of Request: The
licensee requests a temporary variance
of the minimum flow and minimum
reservoir storage requirements of the
California State Water Resources
Control Board Section 401 water quality
certification and the U.S. Forest
Service’s Section 4(e) Conditions, as
contained in appendices A and B of the
project license. Specifically, the licensee
requests temporary relief of the
minimum flow requirements of 30 cubic
feet per second (cfs) at stream gage
S–52 in the Middle Fork Stanislaus
River below the confluence of Kennedy
Creek and Summit Creek. Because
project operations have no influence on
inflows from Kennedy Creek, the
licensee requests that minimum flow
compliance instead, be based on
streamflow releases in Summit Creek
from Relief Reservoir at stream gage
S–2. The licensee also requests that
minimum flow compliance be based on
‘‘target’’ streamflows, rather than
‘‘minimum’’ streamflows at gage
S–2. Finally, the licensee requests a
temporary reduction of the minimum
reservoir storage requirement to 100
acre-feet at Relief Reservoir. The
licensee states that the temporary
variance is necessary due to extremely
dry weather conditions and low
reservoir storage levels. The licensee
requests the temporary variance until
inflow conditions meet the ‘‘dry’’ or
‘‘normal’’ inflow criteria.
l. Locations of the Application: A
copy of the application is available for
inspection and reproduction at the
Commission’s Public Reference Room,
