31, and 8:00 a.m. to 30 minutes after sunset every Saturday and Sunday
and on all holidays, September 1 through March 31. The applicant

aesthetic flows at any point from 8:00 a.m. to 30 minutes after sunset
each day, 7 days a week, April 1 through August 31, and 8:00 a.m. to 30
minutes after sunset every Saturday and Sunday and on all holidays,

day during the described schedule, no flows would occur for the day.
