    j. Deadline for filing comments, motions to intervene, protests,

Please file motions to intervene, protests, comments, or 
recommendations using the Commission's eFiling system at http://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/efiling.asp. Commenters can submit brief

approval of a temporary variance of the minimum and pulse flow 
requirements at the project Upper Lakes under the requirements of the 
project license and Condition No. 7 of the U.S. Forest Service's (FS) 
section 4(e) Conditions. Specifically, the license requests that the 5 
cubic feet per second (cfs) minimum flow requirement be reduced to 2 
cfs below Lower Blue and Meadow Lakes from May 1, 2015 through the June 
30, 2015. The licensee also requests Commission approval to forego the 
5-day, 20 cfs pulse flow requirement in 2015 at Upper Blue, Lower Blue, 
and Meadow Lakes. The licensee states that

[[Page 26248]]

the temporary variance is necessary to conserve water in order to 
ensure minimum flow releases through the fall and to maintain an 
adequate level to recreation opportunities at the Upper Lakes this 
summer.

available for inspection and reproduction at the Commission's Public
