Description of Request: The licensee requests approval to reverse the direction of the stepped flashboard system at the Oswego River Project's Varick development and install a trip flashboard section on the eastern side of the dam adjacent to Leto Island. The licensee maintains the stepped flashboard system so that the tallest 36-inch flashboard section is located on the eastern side of the dam adjacent to Leto Island while stepping down in height to the shortest 10-inch flashboard section located on the western side of the dam adjacent to the existing sluice gate and state head gates. The licensee proposes to reverse the direction of the stepped flashboard by moving the tallest flashboard section to the western side of the dam adjacent to the existing sluice gate and state head gates and stepping down in height in an easterly direction toward Leto Island. Under article 405, the licensee is required to maintain seasonal bypassed reach minimum flows ranging from 200 cubic feet per second (cfs) between June 1 and September 15 to 800 cfs during the springtime walleye spawning season. The remainder of the year the licensee is required to maintain a 400 cfs minimum flow. The proposed trip flashboard would be installed on the dam adjacent to Leto Island and be designed to discharge a minimum flow of 200 cfs at the lowest allowable impoundment elevation at the Varick development. The first 200 cfs of the minimum flow requirements of article 405 would continue to be discharged through the existing sluice gate. l.
