lower development's single 250-kilowatt (kW) turbine with a 280-kW 
turbine and install a new 110-kW minimum flow turbine. The lower

existing 30-foot-wide by 10-foot-deep trashrack structure with a new 
50-foot-wide by 10-foot deep trashrack structure. The new trashrack 
would maintain the current 1.5-inch spacing between the trashrack bars.

down the 10-acre lower development's impoundment from June 2016 through 
September 2016.
