DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
[Project No. 2402-003 Michigan]

 

Upper Peninsula Power Co; Availability Of Final Environmental 
Assessment

December 15, 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 major new 
license for the Prickett Project, located on the Sturgeon River, in 
Baraga and Houghton Counties, Michigan and has prepared a Final 
Environmental Assessment (EA) for the Prickett Project.
    On January 27, 1994, staff issued and distributed to all parties a 
draft EA, and requested that all comments on the draft EA be filed 
within 45 days. All comments that were timely filed have been 
considered in this final EA.
    In the final EA, the Commission's staff has analyzed the 
environmental impacts of the existing project and has concluded that 
approval of the project, with our appropriate enhancement measures, 
would not constitute a major federal action significantly affecting the 
quality of the human environment.
    Copies of the EA 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.
    For further information, please contact CarLisa Linton, 
Environmental Coordinator, at (202) 219-2802.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
