    a. Type of Application: Incorporation of modified 30(c) condition 5 
into Appendix A and B of the project exemption order.
    b. Project No: 14447-004.
    c. Date Filed: May 28, 2015.
    d. Applicant: L.S. Starrett Company (exemptee).
    e. Name of Project: Crescent Street Hydroelectric Project.
    f. Location: Millers River in the Town of Athol, Worcester County, 
Massachusetts.
    g. Filed Pursuant to: Federal Power Act, 16 U.S.C. 791a-825r.
    h. Applicant Contact: Mr. Steve Walsh, L.S. Starrett Company, 121 
Crescent Street, Athol, Massachusetts 01331; phone 978-249-3551.
    i. FERC Contact: Mr. Robert Ballantine at 202-502-6289, 
[email protected].
    j. Deadline for filing comments, motions to intervene, and protests 
is 30 days from the issuance of this notice by the Commission. All 
documents may be filed electronically via the Internet. See, 18 CFR 
385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's Web site 
at http://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/efiling.asp. If unable to be filed 
electronically, documents may be paper-filed. To paper-file, an 
original and seven copies should be mailed to: Secretary, Federal 
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE., Washington, DC 
20426. 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 comments.
    Please include the project number (P-14447-004) on any comments, 
motions, or recommendations filed.
    k. Description of Request: Pursuant to exemption Article 16(d), the 
exemptee is requesting to amend Appendix A and Appendix B of the 
Commission's March 1, 2013, Order Granting Exemption From Licensing 
(5MW or Less) to incorporate a modified condition 5. The appendices 
contain the mandatory terms and conditions submitted under section 
30(c) of the Federal Power Act by the Massachusetts Division of 
Fisheries and Wildlife (MDFW) and by the U.S. Department of the 
Interior (Interior). The MDFW and the Interior issued modifications to 
condition 5 of their terms and conditions and as such, the exemptee is 
requesting that the Commission amend the exemption order by 
incorporating the modified terms and conditions. The modification of 
condition 5 allows the exemptee to operate the project with an approach 
velocity at the left-side trash rack greater than the 2.0 cubic feet 
per second as required by the original condition 5, until such time 
that the MDFW determines that protection for atlantic salmon is 
necessary. The Interior revision requires additional American eel 
monitoring during the period of time that the exceedance of the 2.0 cfs 
approach velocity is allowed.
    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, 
DC 20426, or by calling 202-502-8371. This filing may also be viewed on

comments, a protest, or a motion to intervene in accordance with the

[[Page 46258]]

requirements of Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.210, .211,

other filings in reference to this application must be accompanied by
