The changes to the existing diversion <br />structure will be "hidden" by river flows and only seen at times <br />when the river has no flow. <br />�: <br />Permitting <br />All easements and rights of way have been arranged for. <br />The Company expects to be exempt from 404 permitting by Statutory <br />exemption, 33 CFR Section 323.4(a)3.
