page of any filing should include the docket number P-2842-044.
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 approval of a non-
project use of project lands and waters in support of a public park to
be located adjacent to and partially on project lands. The licensee
proposes a water withdrawal of 2.27 cubic feet per second (cfs) to be
taken from the right bank of the Snake River, upstream of the Lower
Development weir. The request includes provisions to construction an
intake structure and a series of pipes leading to a constructed,
educational stream and pond in the public park. Approximately 0.27 cfs
of the diverted water would be used for irrigation in the park, and the
remaining 2 cfs would be returned to the Snake River downstream of the
Lower Development weir. This would be the first water withdrawal at the
project, and it would not require any alterations of current project
operations.
