    The Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure require all

that document on each person whose name appears on the official service 
list for the project. Further, if an intervenor files comments or 
documents with the Commission relating to the merits of an issue that 
may affect the responsibilities of a particular resource agency, they

    k. Description of Request: The licensee filed a recreation plan for 
Commission approval pursuant to articles 401 and 405 of the license 
order issued October 23, 2014. The proposed plan provides for the

facilities at each of the project's four developments, including picnic 
areas, parking areas, interpretive signage, portages, and an 
observation deck. The proposed plan includes preliminary design 
drawings, an implementation schedule, and a provision for revising the 
plan, as needed, over the license term. Contrary to Article 405, the 
licensee proposes to not relocate the boat barrier at the Huntington 
Falls Development and, instead, would maintain the boat barrier in its 
current location and provide a portage take-out on the northern 
shoreline of Otter Creek upstream of the bridge on Morgan Horse Farm 
Road.
