DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

 
Notice of Amendment of License

January 9, 1998.
    Take notice that the following hydroelectric application has been 
filed with the Commission and is available for public inspection:
    a. Type of Application: Amendment of License.
    b. Project No.: 1025-020.
    c. Date Filed: December 23, 1997.
    d. Applicant: Safe Harbor Water Power Corporation.
    e. Name of Project: Safe Harbor.
    f. Location: On the Susquehanna River, in Lancaster County, 
Pennsylvania.
    g. Filed Pursuant to: Federal Power Act, 16 U.S.C. 791(a)-825(r).
    h. Applicant Contact: Marshall J. Kaiser, President, Safe Harbor 
Water Power Corporation, One Powerhouse Road, Conestoga, PA 17516-9651, 
(717) 872-5441.
    i. FERC Contact: James Hunter, (202) 219-2839.
    j. Comment Date: February 27, 1998.
    k. Description of Application: The Applicant proposes to raise the 
normal maximum level of Safe Harbor reservoir by 0.8 feet, from 
elevation 227.2 feet to elevation 228.0 feet above mean sea level. 
Raising the elevation can be accomplished operationally, and would not 
require any modification to project structures.
    The higher level would benefit the project by maximizing the 
operating head and by providing 5,900 acre-feet of additional usable 
storage capacity for energy generation, under the normal daily peaking 
operation. The Applicant proposes to implement the increase in 
reservoir elevation over several years, if necessary, to minimize the 
potential effects of the increase on migrant shorebird usage of mudflat 
areas within the reservoir.
    1. This notice also consists of the following standard paragraphs: 
B, C1, and D2.
    B. Comments, Protests, or Motions to Intervene--Anyone may submit

may become a party to the proceeding. Any comments, protests, or 
motions to intervene must be received on or before the specified 
comment date for the particular application.
