    k. Description of Request: Georgia Power Company is requesting 
Commission approval to permit 1054 Lake Oconee Parkway, LLC (applicant) 
to construct a commercial marina on the site of an existing commercial 
development (i.e., Jerry's Bait and Tackle) that has closed. The 
applicant proposes to construct a commercial marina and dry boat 
storage facility that would include a stationary, wooden dock that 
could accommodate 18 watercraft, a concrete walkway, and two concrete 
ramps (one of which would be used as the launch serving the dry storage 
operation). The dock would not extend farther than 50 feet into the 
water, would include a fuel pump platform (with two pumps and four 
dispensers), and would follow the licensee's shoreline management 
guidelines. Since filing its marina application, on June 18, 2020, the 
licensee received a new license to continue operating the Wallace Dam 
project.
