DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No. 739-022-VA]
Appalachian Power Company; Notice of Availability of
Environmental Assessment
August 12, 2010.
In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) regulations,
18 CFR part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47879), the Office of Energy
Projects has reviewed the application for a new license for the Claytor
Hydroelectric Project, located on the New River in Pulaski County,
Virginia, and prepared a draft environmental assessment (DEA). In the
DEA, Commission staff analyze the potential environmental effects of
licensing the project and conclude that issuing a license 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

Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Room 1-A,
