Re:Spillway Damage Repair at Hendricks Head Dam
Dear Mr. Cruzen:
This is in response to a letter dated August 30, 2024,from Mr.Robert Ellis,that
submitted a construction authorization request to repair the spillway damage and to
address follow-up item No. 6 from the 2019 Dam Safety Inspection at Hendricks Head
Dam, which is part of the DeSabla-Centerville Project, FERC No. 803.Upon receiving
United States Fish and Wildlife Services’ consultation dated August 13, 2025,and the
order from our Division of Hydropower Administration and Compliance dated August
25, 2025,we have reviewed the submittal, and we have the following comments.
You must comply with the Commission’s August 25, 2025 Order Amending
License to Incorporate Biological Opinion Terms and Conditions
(https://elibrary.ferc.gov/eLibrary/filelist?accession_Number=20250825-3047).
Provided that you understand and comply with the above comment, you are
authorized to proceed with construction upon receipt of this letter.
During construction, we typically require monthly construction reports. However,
due to the short duration of this project, we will not require monthly construction reports.
If the plans and specifications are revised during the construction process, it is
your responsibility to ensure that these changes are properly coordinated between the
Design Engineer, the Resident Engineer, the Project Manager, us, and you, prior to
proceeding with the changes. Also, you are reminded that no changes may be made to

the operation of the project without first coordinating those proposed changes with the
FERC.
You are responsible for ensuring completion of any necessary environmental
coordination with resource agencies as well as the procurement of any federal, state, or
local permits required for the work.
Within 90 days of completion or by December 29, 2025, submit a final
construction report. The report should be commensurate with the scope of work of the
project and include details typical for a final construction report, including but not limited
to details regarding the construction activities, any problems encountered during the
construction, test results from the testing detailed in your QCIP, and construction
photographs.File your submittal using our eFiling system at https://www.ferc.gov/ferc-
