    k. Description of Proposal. The applicant proposes modifications in

spillway crests at both dams to facilitate run-of-river operations and 
to leave existing gates open one inch to provide continuous river flow. 
Provisions for the installation of flashboards on the lowered spillways 
have been made allowing the dams to be operated under the current mode 
of operation, if desired. At the Seymour Dam, the existing timber crib 
with concrete cap would be replaced with a new concrete gravity type 
structure. To compensate for the lost gate, the discharge capacity at 
Seymour Dam the Spillway length would be increased to include the area 
of the existing abutment wall.
