Notice of Application for Amendment of License and Soliciting 
Comments, Motions to Intervene, and Protests

September 25, 2001.
    a. Application Type: Application to Amend License for the Power 
Creek Hydroelectric Project.
    b. Project No: 11243-037.
    c. Date Filed: September 7, 2001.
    d. Applicant: Cordova Electric Cooperative.
    e. Name of Project: Power Creek Hydroelectric Project.
    f. Location: The project is located on Power Creek in the town of 
Cordova, Southeast Alaska. The project is entirely on Eyak Native 
Corporation Lands, adjacent to the Chugach National Forest.
    g. Filed Pursuant to: Federal Power Act, 16 U.S.C. 791(a)-825(r).
    h. Applicant Contact: Kenneth J. Gates, Cordova Electric 
Cooperative, P.O. Box 20, Cordova, AK, 99674-0020. Tel: (907) 424-5555.
    i. FERC Contact: Any questions on this notice should be addressed 
to Mr. Vedula Sarma at (202) 219-3273 or by e-mail at 
[email protected].
    j. Deadline for filing comments and/or motions: (October 25, 2001).
    All documents (original and eight copies) should be filed with 
David P. Boergers, Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 
First Street, NE, Washington, DC 10416. Comments, protests and 
interventions may be filed electronically via the Internet in lieu of 
paper. See, 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the 
Commission's web site under the ``e-Filing'' link.
    Please include the project number (11243-037) on any comments or 
motions filed.
    k. Description of Filing: The licensee is proposing re-route about 
250 feet of the project pipeline in the area of the penstock bridge. 
The re-route would consist of burying the penstock under Power Creek 
where it crosses the creek, instead of running over on the bridge as 
presently constructed. The proposed action would protect the penstock 
from any avalanche damage. Burying the penstock would provide economic 
and environmental benefits by eliminating the risk of pipe line rupture 
and consequent water quality impact , and power outages.
    l. Locations of the Application: A copy of the application is 
available for inspection and reproduction at the Commission's Public 
Reference Room, located at 888 First Street, NE, Room 2A, Washington, 
DC 20426, or by calling (202) 208-1371. This filing may also be viewed 
on the web at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``RIMS'' link, select 
``Docket#'' and follow the instructions (call 202-208-2222 for

    m. Individuals desiring to be included on the Commission's mailing 
list should so indicate by writing to the Secretary of the Commission.
    n. Comments, Protests, or Motions to Intervene--Anyone may submit 
comments, a protest, or a motion to intervene in accordance with the 
requirements of Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.210,

FOR TERMS AND CONDITIONS'', ``PROTEST'', OR ``MOTION TO INTERVENE'', as 
applicable, and the Project Number of the particular application to 
which the filing refers. A copy of any motion to intervene must also be 
served upon each representative of the Applicant specified in the 
particular application.
    p. Agency Comments--Federal, state, and local agencies are invited 
to file comments on the described application. A copy of the 
application may be obtained by agencies directly from the Applicant. If
