amendment to operate the project at a target elevation of 802.9 feet 
mean sea level (msl), or 0.4 foot above the authorized target elevation 
of 802.5 feet msl. The exemptee would continue to operate within the 
authorized elevation range of 801.83 feet msl and 803.17 feet msl. The 
exemptee states it has been operating at the 802.9 feet elevation and 
that the amendment is necessary to address public concerns about 
recreation and possible public safety issues when operating the project 
at the authorized target elevation. During the proposed temporary 
amendment, which would end on September 1, 2017, the exemptee plans to 
study the feasibility of permanently amending the exemption to operate 
at the higher target elevation.
