Town of Massena; Notice of Dispute Resolution Panel Meeting and 
Technical Conference

November 30, 2007.
    On November 26, 2007, Commission staff, in response to the filing 
of a notice of study dispute by the New York State Department of 
Environmental Conservation on November 8, 2007, convened two three-
person Dispute Resolution Panels pursuant to 18 CFR 5.14(d).
    The Panels will hold a two-session technical conference at the 
times and place noted below. The morning session (Session 1) will 
address study disputes regarding impacts related to floodplain, ice 
management, municipal combined sewer overflows and infrastructure. The 
afternoon session (Session 2) will address study disputes regarding 
sampling for sturgeon movement and spawning and the Phase II ASTM 
environmental site assessment. The focus of the technical session is 
for the disputing agency, applicant, and Commission to provide the 
Panels with additional information necessary to evaluate the disputed 
studies. All local, state, and federal agencies, Indian tribes, and 
other interested parties are invited to attend the meeting as 
observers. The Panels may also request information or clarification on 
written submissions as necessary to understand the matters in dispute. 
The Panels will limit all input that it receives to the specific 
studies or information in dispute and will focus on the applicability 
of such studies or information to the study criteria stipulated in 18 
CFR 5.9(b). If the number of participants wishing to speak creates time 
constraints, the Panels may, at their discretion, limit the speaking 
time for each participant.
