The modernized units would increase the total authorized installed capacity of the project from 168 to 206 megawatts, and increase the project’s maximum hydraulic capacity by 10.4 percent. The replacements would not require any modifications to the power tunnel, turbine bypass hollow jet valve, Unit 4, the outlets for Units 1, 2 and 3, or the Districts’ ‘‘water first’’ operations. Unit replacements would not require any modifications to the flow requirements of the license and the New Don Pedro Dam flood control operations would not be affected. l.
