DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 803-087]


Butte County, CA; Notice of Availability of Environmental 
Assessment

December 29, 2008.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 
1969 and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (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 DeSabla-Centerville Hydroelectric Project (project), located on 
Butt Creek in Butt County, California, 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 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.
    Any comments should be filed within 60 days from the issuance date 
of this notice, and should be addressed to the Secretary, Federal 
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Room 1-A, 
Washington, DC 20426. Please affix ``DeSabla-Centerville Hydroelectric 
Project No. 803-087'' to all comments. Comments may be filed 
electronically via 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 under the ``eFiling'' link.)
