    project stated in the exemption. The Notice of Exemption issued on June

    gross head, including existing 2-foot-high flashboards, with a 
    tailwater elevation of 364.5 feet, and impoundment surface elevation of 
    377.5 feet. The exemptee filed a 1993 survey and a 1997 exhibit drawing 
    that indicates an error in the headpond elevation and flashboards 
    height. These elevations correspond to 4-foot-high flashboards, and 
    about 13 feet of head. The exemptee stated that the flashboard height 
    has not changed since the project was exempted from licensing in 1983.
