    k. Description of Application: Appalachian Power Company (licensee) 
requests Commission approval to permit Larry and Barbara Patton

636-square-foot dock would replace an existing dock that had been 
dislodged from the shoreline. The application also includes a request 
for a variance from the project's approved shoreline management plan to

environmental. No vegetation removal or dredging is proposed.
