Commission, 12225 Wilkins Avenue,

The Commission’s Rules of Practice
and Procedure require all intervenors
filing documents with the Commission
to serve a copy of that document on
each person on the official service list
for the project. Further, if an intervenor
files comments or documents with the
Commission relating to the merits of an
issue that may affect the responsibilities

k. Description of Request: The
licensee requests Commission approval
for a temporary variance of the
minimum powerhouse flow and
reservoir elevation requirements
outlined in license articles 403 and 404.
The purpose of the variance request is
to accommodate controls upgrade and
minor maintenance at the Forestville
powerhouse (No. 2 Development),
scheduled to take place for a duration of
6–10 weeks in June–July 2023. To
facilitate the controls upgrade, the
licensee plans to take both hydro units
offline. Prior to taking the hydro units
offline, the licensee would gradually
reduce the powerhouse flows 1 to allow
the reservoir elevation to exceed the
maximum allowable limit (771.0 feet),
and overflow the spillway 2 to prevent
areas within the river channel from
drying up before suspending the
powerhouse flows.
For the duration of the planned
upgrades, the licensee would provide
flows 3 from the spillway to the river by
allowing the reservoir elevation to
exceed the spillway crest elevation of
771.4 feet. Once the project upgrades are
complete, the licensee would place the
hydro units online and lower the
reservoir level to meet the license
requirements. The licensee would work
closely with the relevant resource
agencies to prevent any adverse
environmental effects from occurring
1 40
cubic feet per second.
overflow spillway has a crest elevation of
771.4 feet.
3 The flows would be run of the river.
