Our department recently commented on a similar issue on the Red River (LA)
concerning eels and hydropower.  I've attached the study plan from the
consultant and LDWF's comments.

Subject: IFC_mail: FERC licensing study request examples

Hello All,

I would greatly appreciate if anyone could send me examples of FERC licensing
study requests.

Currently my agency is involved in a Traditional Licensing Process for
relicensing an existing project where the project owner is suggesting
fishery-related studies what we find to be insufficient.  We are now in the
position of having to make study requests and I am hoping to review some
examples that others may have used.

One specific area we are looking at is requesting a study regarding indirect
turbine entrainment impacts due to avoidance of the intake or fish
disorientation from passing through the turbine both resulting in predation by
predator fish as well as birds.  If you have any specific information related
to this issue that would be extremely helpful also.  The project involves a low
head dam and a Kaplan horizontal turbine.

Thank you in advance for your help.
