DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No. 349-096]
Alabama Power Company; Notice of Availability of Environmental
Assessment
November 1, 2005.
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
an application for non-project use of project lands and waters at the
Martin Dam Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. 349) and has prepared an
Environmental Assessment (EA) for the proposed non-project use. The
project is located on Lake Martin near Dadeville, Tallapoosa County,
Alabama.
In the application, Alabama Power Company (licensee) requests
Commission authorization to permit The Profile Group to use project
lands to build a walkway along the shoreline and 19 dock structures
with 128 boat slips. The EA contains Commission staff's analysis of the
probable environmental impacts of the proposal and concludes that
approving the licensee's application, with staff's recommended
environmental measures, would not constitute a major Federal action
significantly affecting the quality of the human environment.

The EA is attached to a Commission order titled ``Order Approving Non-
Project Use of Project Lands and Waters,'' which was issued October 31,
2005, and is available for review and reproduction at the Commission's
Public Reference Room, located at 888 First Street, NE., Room 2A,
Washington, DC 20426. The EA may also be viewed on the Commission's Web
site at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``elibrary'' link. Enter the
project number (prefaced by P-) and excluding the last three digits, in
