DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 12646-001--Oklahoma]

 
City of Broken Bow, OK; Notice of Availability of Environmental 
Assessment

September 10, 2008.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission or FERC) 
regulations, 18 CFR 380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897), the Office of 
Energy Projects has reviewed the City of Broken Bow, Oklahoma's 
application for license for the proposed Pine Creek Lake Dam Hydropower 
Project (or Project), located on Pine Creek dam in McCurtain County, 
Oklahoma, and has prepared an environmental assessment (EA) for the 
Project. The proposed Project would occupy a total of 10.12 acres of 
federal lands administered by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
    The EA contains Commission staff's analysis of the potential future 
environmental effects of the Project. Staff has concluded 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 Web site at 
http://www.ferc.gov, using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket 
number excluding the last three digits in the docket number field to 
access the document. For assistance, contact FERC Online Support at
