[Project No. 1413-032 Idaho]
Fall River Rural Electric Cooperative, Inc.; Notice of
Availability of Environmental Assessment
July 2, 2004.
In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission)
regulations, 18 CFR Part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897), the Office
of Energy Projects has reviewed the application for new license for the
continued operation of the Buffalo River Hydroelectric Project, located
on the
[[Page 45034]]
Buffalo River near its confluence with the Henry's Fork River in
Fremont County, Idaho, and has prepared an Environmental Assessment
(EA) for the project. The project occupies about 9.8 acres of land
within the Targhee National Forest, administered by the U.S. Forest
Service.
The EA contains the staff's analysis of the potential environmental
impacts of the project and concludes that licensing the project, with
appropriate environmental protective measures, would not constitute a
major federal action that would significantly affect the quality of the
human environment.
A copy of the EA is available for review at the Commission in the
Public Reference Room or may be viewed on the Commission's website at
http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket
number excluding the last three digits in the docket number field to
