DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 13565-000-VT]


Charlie Hotchkin and Claire Fay; Notice of Availability of 
Environmental Assessment

July 13, 2010.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's regulations, 18 CFR part 
380 (Order No. 486, 52 F.R. 47879), the Office of Energy Projects has 
reviewed the application for a small hydro (5 megawatts or less) 
exemption from licensing for the Alder Brook Mini-Hydro Project, to be 
located on Alder Brook, near the town of Richford, Franklin County, 
Vermont, and has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA). In the EA, 
Commission staff analyzes the potential environmental effects of the 
project and concludes that issuing an exemption for the project, with 
appropriate environmental measures, would not constitute a major 
federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human 
environment.
    A copy of the EA is on file with the Commission and is available 
for public inspection. The EA may also 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 [email protected] or toll-free at 1-866-208-3676, 
or for TTY, (202) 502-8659. For further information, contact Michael 
Spencer at (202) 502-6093.

Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
