    k. Description of Request: The proposed amendment would revise the 
project boundary to remove the Red Bluff Substation from the project 
boundary and relocate a portion of the transmission line so that it 
enters the substation from the east rather than from the north. The 
licensee states that the substation is owned by a third-party and need 
not be included in the project boundary. As constructed, the substation 
bays are located on the east side of the station rather than the north, 
requiring the project boundary to be amended to accommodate a new 
connection to the substation.
