recommendations, terms and conditions, and fishway prescriptions is 60 
days from the issuance date of this notice by the Commission; reply 
comments are due 105 days from the issuance date of this notice by the 
Commission. The Commission strongly encourages electronic filing. 
Please file any motion to intervene, protest, comments, and/or 
recommendations using the Commission's eFiling system at http://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/efiling.asp. Commenters can submit brief 
comments up to 6,000 characters, without prior registration, using the 
eComment system at http://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/ecomment.asp. You 
must include your name and contact information at the end of your

Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE., 
Washington, DC 20426. The first page of any filing should include 
docket number P-8221-094.
    k. Description of Request: The applicant proposes to construct a 
new 16-foot-high, 60-foot-wide diversion dam located on the West Fork 
Upper Battle Creek, 6.1 miles upstream of the mouth of Battle Creek. 
The diversion dam would feed a 6-foot-diameter, 9,100-foot-long 
underground steel pipe emptying into a rip-rap stilling basin. Water 
would then travel through a 1,000 foot-long canal to a natural stream 
channel draining to Bradley Lake, the main reservoir for the project. 
The applicant also proposes to construct 2.9 miles of new access roads 
for construction and maintenance of the new facilities. The proposal 
would not change the authorized installed capacity of the project; 
however, it is expected to increase the average annual generation by 
37,000 megawatt-hours. Most of the new facilities would be constructed 
on lands owned by the State of Alaska though some would be constructed 
on federal land already occupied by the project and administered by the 
Bureau of Land Management.
    l. Locations of the Application: A copy of the application is 
available for inspection and reproduction at the Commission's Public 
Reference Room, located at 888 First Street NE., Room 2A, Washington,

comments, a protest, or a motion to intervene in accordance with the 
requirements of Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.210, .211,
