    All documents (original and eight copies) should be filed with: 
Magalie R. Salas, Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 
First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426.
    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. The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings. Please 
include the project number (P-2608-028) on any comments or motions 
filed.
    The Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure require all 
interveners filing a document with the Commission to serve a copy of 
that document on each person in the official service list for the 
project. Further, if an intervener files comments or documents with the 
Commission relating to the merits of an issue that may affect the 
responsibilities of a particular resource agency, they must also serve 
a copy of the document on that resource agency.
    k. Description of Transfer: FiberMark and A & D jointly seek 
Commission approval to transfer the license for the West Springfield 
Hydroelectric Project No. 2608 from FiberMark to A & D. The application 
also seeks approval of the already-completed transfer from the original 
licensee, FiberMark DSI, Inc. (DSI), to FiberMark. The application 
states that on December 31, 2002, FiberMark acquired all of the assets 
of DSI (which as a result has been dissolved and has ceased to exist), 
but FiberMark and DSI inadvertently failed to seek prior Commission 
approval of their transfer.

list should so indicate by writing to the Secretary of the Commission.
