k. Description of Request: The licensee proposes to remove the
existing trashracks from the structure at the upstream end of the West
Development hydro canal and construct a new concrete sill and steel
structure immediately upstream of the powerhouse intake to support new
1-inch clear trashracks. The licensee would also construct a new fish
conveyance system along the right side of the West Development hydro
canal, 90 feet upstream of the new trashracks. In addition, the
licensee proposes to now discharge some of the required minimum flow
from the new fish conveyance system instead of the Tainter gate. The
proposed amendment would only affect the West Development. The licensee
does not propose any changes to existing project operations, headpond
elevation, or spillway capacity.
