sent via the U.S. Postal Service must be addressed to: Kimberly D. 
Bose, Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street 
NE, Room 1A, Washington, DC 20426. Submissions sent via any other

1744-054. Comments emailed to Commission staff are not considered part 
of the Commission record.
    The Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure require all 
intervenors filing documents with the Commission to serve a copy of 
that document on each person whose name appears on the official service 
list for the project. Further, if an intervenor 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 Request: The licensee proposes to amend its 
license to modernize intake components at the Weber Dam. Additionally, 
the licensee proposes the construction of three new auxiliary spillways 
sections to accommodate recently recalculated 100-year flood flows. The 
new intake and spillway equipment would require the destruction and 
replacement of the current gatehouse and the original, non-functional, 
fish ladder to accommodate new screens/trashracks. All components will 
be installed on previously disturbed ground, within the project 
boundary. Staging for the proposed actions would be partially located 
on lands administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Forest 
Service. The proposed action would require temporary closure of some 
recreational facilities, closest to the work area, during the 
construction.
