APPLICATION FOR LICENSE FOR MINOR PROJECT

4.60 Contents. Each application for license for a complete project of 100 horsepower installed capacity or less, or for a part thereof, whether to be constructed or already constructed, shall be verified, shall conform to § 200.2, and set forth in appropriate detail the information prescribed by §§ 4.40-4.42, for application for licenses for proposed major projects, but accompanied by the following abridged list of exhibits. Unless otherwise specified, the application and all accompanying documents shall be submitted in quadruplicate. Exhibits shall be certified in accordance with § 200.4. Exhibits A to E. As prescribed by §§ 4.40-4.42.

Exhibit F. Map of the project area drawn to any convenient scale and showing

(1) The project area and the project boundary.

(i) Unless satisfactory reasons are given to the contrary, the project boundary shall not be more than 200 feet (horizontal measurement) from the exterior margin (in general, high-water level) of reservoirs, nor shall the width of the project area for canals, ditches, pipe lines, transmission lines, roads, and other so-called continuous structures exceed 200 feet. The project boundary shall be shown on the map in such manner that it can be readily identified on the ground. There shall be shown the location and description of monuments and other marks and reference lines therefrom to permanent objects, in accordance with good practice in land surveying.

(ii) If the project boundary is located on lands covered by the public-land survey, there shall be shown a reference line from the initial point of the project boundary survey by bearings and distances to an established corner, if one can be identified within a distance of two miles. At each intersection of the project boundary with an identified line of the public-land survey, there shall be shown the station number on the boundary survey and the bearing and distance to the nearest identified corner in each direction on the public-land survey line crossed, if such distance does not exceed one mile.

(iii) Field notes, or a description by metes and bounds, of the final location survey of the project boundary shall be furnished either on the map or on separate sheets to be made a part of the exhibit, unless all courses and distances are fully and legibly shown along the plotted boundary.

(iv) Such portions of the project area as will be used only for continuous structures, such as transmission lines, telephone lines, canals, roads, etc., may be described by center or offset lines of survey, specifying distances of the project boundary therefrom. Such lines of survey shall be referred to the public-land survey and per

manent objects in a manner similar to that prescribed for the project boundary.

(v) There shall be shown the status as to ownership and the boundary lines and area of each parcel of land within the project area, designating separately lands owned by the applicant, lands for which the applicant holds rights of use and occupancy for purposes of the project, reservations (indicating separately each reservation), and public lands (indicating separately lands full title to which remains in the United States, and lands in which the United States retains only an interest). Where the project works occupy lands not owned by the applicant, but as to which the applicant holds only an easement, franchise, lease, or other right of occupancy and use, the map shall show the nature of such right.

(2) The location and general plan of all project works, such as dams, reservoirs, canals, flumes, pipe lines, powerhouses, transmission lines, telephone lines, roads, trails, etc. Indicate the flow line fixed by maximum water level and the area and storage capacity of each reservoir. If the application covers project works in addition to those already constructed, show in an appropriate manner which project works or parts thereof have already been constructed.
