Commission

Notice of Application for Amendment

of License and Soliciting Comments,

Motions To Intervene, and Protests

November 18, 2005.

Take notice that the following

application has been filed with the

Commission and is available for public

inspection:

a. Application Type: Amendment of

License.

b. Project No.: 12379–005.

c. Date Filed: August 26, 2005.

d. Applicant: Lake Dorothy Hydro,

Inc., Alaska.

e. Name of Project: Lake Dorothy

Hydroelectric Project.

f. Location: The project is located on

Dorothy Creek, near Juneau, Alaska.

g. Filed Pursuant to: Federal Power

Act, 16 U.S.C. 791a–825r.

h. Applicant Contact: Corry V.

Hildebrand, Lake Dorothy Hydro Inc.,

5601 Tonsgard Court, Juneau, AK

99801–7201.

i. FERC Contact: Any questions on

this notice should be addressed to Eric

Gross, P.E. at (202) 502–6213, or e-mail

address: eric.gross@ferc.gov.

j. Deadline for filing comments and or

motions: December 19, 2005.

k. Description of Request: In their

August 26, 2005 filing, Lake Dorothy

Hydro, Inc. (licensee) proposes to

amend the license for the Lake Dorothy

Hydroelectric Project to replace the

proposed lake tap at Bart Lake with a

rock fill diversion dam and outlet

works. According to the licensee the

geology of Bart Lake will not support

the lake tap and that the natural debris

dam that contains the lake is subject to

periodic failure and cannot be relied

upon for constant lake levels. In a

supplemental October 21, 2005, filing

the licensee also proposes to relocate

the powerhouse and the substation. The

license calls for the powerhouse and

substation to be built on a beach fill site.

VerDate Aug<31>2005

14:11 Nov 23, 2005

Jkt 205001

According to the licensee, a

geotechnical investigation determined

that the beach fill site would not be

stable in an earthquake, so the licensee

proposes relocating the structures to

separate rock benches upstream of the

beach fill site. The licensee states that

there will be no additional

environmental impacts due to these

revisions, and that the project operation

would be unchanged.

l. Locations of Applications: A copy of

the application is available for

inspection and reproduction at the

Commission in the Public Reference
