DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
[Project No. 2514-003 Virginia]

 

Appalachian Power Company; Availability of Draft Environmental 
Assessment

January 10, 1994.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission's) 
regulations, 18 CFR part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897), the Office 
of Hydropower Licensing has reviewed the application for a new license 
for the existing Byllesby-Buck Hydroelectric Project, located on the 
New River in Carroll County, Virginia, near the city of Galax, and has 
prepared a Draft Environmental Assessment (DEA). In the DEA, the 
Commission's staff has analyzed the existing and potential future 
environmental impacts of the project and has concluded that licensing 
the project, with appropriate environmental protection, mitigation, and 
enhancement measures, would not constitute a major federal action that 
would significantly affect quality of the human environment.
    Copies of the DEA are available for review in the Public Reference 
Branch, room 3104, of the Commission's offices at 941 North Capitol 
Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426.
    Any comments should be filed within 30 days from the date of this 
notice and should be addressed to Lois D. Cashell, Secretary, Federal 
Energy Regulatory Commission, 825 North Capitol Street, NE., 
Washington, DC 20426. For further information, contact Jerry Ziewitz, 
Environmental Coordinator, at (202) 219-3157.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
