(TTY). In lieu of electronic filing, you may submit a paper copy.
Submissions sent via the U.S. Postal Service must be addressed to:
Kimberly D. Bose, Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888
First Street NE, Room 1A, Washington, DC 20426. Submissions sent via
any other carrier must be addressed to: Kimberly D. Bose, Secretary,
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 12225 Wilkins Avenue, Rockville,

k. Description of Request: On November 21, 2013, the Commission
issued a new license for the Scotland Project with the boundary around
the project reservoir at a contour elevation of 127 feet USGS datum.
The approved boundary line is shown on the project's current Exhibit G
(project boundary) drawings. The licensee seeks Commission approval of
revised Exhibit G drawings that show a modified project boundary, based
on improvements to the project's survey and property rights
information. The modified boundary would remain at the 127-foot contour
around the reservoir; however, the more accurate boundary line would
enclose either more or less lands in certain areas to better follow the
contour. The licensee also proposes boundary revisions near the dam and
powerhouse to ensure all project facilities (e.g., fish passage, access
road, switchyard, etc.) are fully enclosed within the boundary. The
revised exhibit drawings do not modify the licensee's property rights
under the project license.
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, it
must also serve a copy of the document on that resource agency.
l. Locations of the Application: The Commission provides all
interested persons an opportunity to view and/or print the contents of
this document via the internet through the Commission's website at
