Removing these lines from the project license will not result in any physical change to these transmission facilities or to their operation.

The Commission is presently processing applications for new licenses for four of the projects: Mokelumne (137-022), Rock Creek- Cresta (1962-026), Crane Valley (1354-021), and Hass-Kings River (1988- 023).
