Hudson River by the New York Department of Transportation. The bridge 
replacement project is expected to start on May 1, 2001 and end on June

    The requested license amendments for the South Glens Falls 
Project include temporary closure of the project's recreation 
facilities, the temporary covering of two public safety signs, and 
the temporary suspension of the requirement to operate the dam crest 
gate adjacent to the project intake first during high flows if 
necessary due to construction activities. The requested license 
amendments for the Glens Falls Project include temporary closure of 
the project's recreation facilities and temporary removal and 
storage of signs in and around the project's public viewing area and 
picnic overlook. The Glens Falls application also identifies certain 
measures under consideration in the project's pending relicensing 
proceeding that may need similar temporary relief if the measures 
are required in any new license issued for the project.
