[Project No. 659-014]

 
Crisp County Power Commission; Notice of Availability of 
Environmental Assessment

April 2, 2008.
    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 F.R. 47897), the Office 
of Energy Projects has reviewed the application for a New Major License 
for the Lake Blackshear Hydroelectric Project.
    The project is located in Southwest Georgia in Worth, Lee, Sumter, 
Dooly, and Crisp Counties. The project does not occupy any federal 
lands. Staff has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) for the 
project.
    The EA contains staff's analysis of the potential environmental 
effects 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 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 
FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov or toll-free at 1-866-208-3676, or for TTY, 
(202) 502-8659.
    Any comments should be filed within 30 days from the date of this 
notice and should be addressed to: Kimberly D. Bose, Secretary, Federal 
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE, Washington, DC 
20426. Please affix Project No. 659-014 to all comments. Comments may 
be filed electronically via the Internet in lieu of paper. The 
Commission strongly encourages electronic filings. See 18 CFR 
385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's Web site 
(http://www.ferc.gov) under the ``e-Filing'' link.
