4. Modifications to the DG Facility

Applicant shall notify DISCO of plans for any material modification to the DG Facility by
providing at least forty working days of advance notice. “Material Modification” is defined as
any modification that changes the maximum electrical output of the DG Facility or changes the
interconnection equipment. The notification shall consist of a completed, revised Application
and such supporting materials as may be reasonably requested by DISCO. Applicant agrees not
