1. The licensee shall at all times maintain the project works in good
repair and in efficient working order; shall promptly make all necessary
renewals and replacements, including such necessary renewals or
replacements as may, after a hearing, be directed by the department for

the requirements of this section and the adequacy of the reserves
maintained by it for the purposes herein specified. After such

life, health or property or other lawful purposes. He shall likewise
promptly conform to and comply with such lawful rules and regulations as
may from time to time be prescribed by the federal government, its duly
authorized officers or agents relating to the navigation of the waters
covered by the license.
