    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 California Department of Fish and 
Wildlife has notified Southern California Edison Company that operation 
at the Kern River Planting Base (hatchery) has temporarily changed and 
flow that is diverted at the Fairfield Dam to provide 35 cubic feet per 
second is not needed until improvements at the hatchery are completed. 
The licensee is requesting a variance to continue to divert 10 cubic 
feet per second through the hatchery supply line for fire suppression 
at the KR3 Powerhouse and to maintain water in the flowline to protect 
the water conveyance features. If granted, the variance would last 
until such time that the California Department of Fish and Wildlife 
completes repairs and requests Southern California Edison Company to 
provide the full 35 cfs flow to the hatchery.
