Assessment

and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's regulations, 18 CFR part 
380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 447897), the Office of Energy Projects has 
reviewed the application for an original license for the 3.7-megawatt 
(MW) Gathright Hydroelectric Project located on the Jackson River in 
Alleghany County, Virginia, and has prepared an Environmental 
Assessment (EA). In the EA, 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
