Submissions sent via any other carrier must be addressed to: Kimberly

Avenue, Rockville, Maryland 20852. The first page of any filing should
include the docket number P-1988-097. Comments emailed to Commission
staff are not considered part of the Commission record.
The Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure require all
intervenors filing documents with the Commission to serve a copy of
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
must also serve a copy of the document on that resource agency.
k. Description of Request: The licensee requests a temporary
variance of its supplemental flow requirement in Dinkey Creek below the
Dinkey Creek siphon. Specifically, the licensee proposes to forego
releasing the required 15 cubic feet per second (cfs) supplemental flow
through January 24, 2022. The licensee explains that the variance is
necessary as a result of planned powerhouse outages, which limit its
ability to move water through the Kings penstock into Dinkey Creek. The
licensee also explains that the proposed variance is unlikely to result
in adverse effects to biological resources due to the approximate 15
cfs natural flows in Dinkey Creek and 25 cfs natural flows further
downstream in the North Fork Kings River and cooler water temperatures
during the winter months.

Commission's website at <a href="http://www.ferc.gov">http://www.ferc.gov</a> using the ``eLibrary''
