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:* Pacific Gas and Electric Company (licensee) filed a revised recreation plan proposing to delete a new fishing access area on the Cross Country Canal required under the project's current recreation plan. While beginning construction of the new site, the licensee discovered historical artifacts and immediately stopped work. After further assessment, it has been determined that construction of the new fishing access site cannot proceed without impacting cultural resources. After finding no suitable alternatives for the new site and given the current low recreation use of existing informal canal fishing access sites in the area, the licensee proposes to remove the required new site from the project's recreation plan. The proposed revised recreation plan reflects the deletion of this fishing access site, as well as the deletion of extraneous or outdated information. All other aspects of the current recreation plan would remain the same. l. *Locations of the Application:* A copy of the application is available for inspection and reproduction at the Commission's Public Reference Room, located at 888 First Street NE, Room 2A, Washington, DC 20426, or by calling
