EXHIBIT A August 1, 1980 Page 1 RIDGEWAY HYDROELECTRIC PROJECT Pfu\SE III-A PREPARATION OF FERC LICENSE APPLICATION SCOPE OF SERVICES The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) License Application will be prepared based on the Phase II-B Evaluation Studies, the results to be compiled in an Evaluation Report for distributi.on to all required local, State and Federal agencies, and further required studies relating to fish and wild- life, recreation development and preservation of natural, historical and arch- aeological features. During the processing of the License, additional investi- gations and data collection will no doubt be required by the FERC and other agencies, and revisions and updating of the License Application will therefore result. There is no way to predict the extent in costs of possible additional requirements and we have found it best in the interest of Project schedule and costs, to prepare an Application with sufficient background to be acceptable and if necessary to do further work as required during the processing to firm up the License document. The Application for an FERC License follows the format and guidelines established by FERC in its regulations as listed in the code of Federal Regu- lations (CFR 18). 1.
