What happens if staff determines that a modification will be a significant project change?
Any modification to a project design, operation or performance requirement that requires changes to any components of its conditions of certification are processed as an amendment. The decision must then be approved by the full commission at a noticed business meeting. At the business meeting, the commission will issue an order approving, rejecting, or modifying the petition. If further consideration is needed, the commission may decide to assign the matter for further hearing before the full commission or an assigned committee or hearing officer.
