William B. Ruger, Jr.; Notice of Availability of Draft 
Environmental Assessment

October 31, 1995.
    A draft environmental assessment (DEA) is available for public 
review. The DEA reviewed the application for amendment for the Sugar 
River II Project (FERC No. 10934). The application proposes to shorten 
the bypass reach of the Sugar River by 650 feet by relocating the 
proposed dam in a downstream direction and replacing an open canal with 
a seven-foot-diameter buried steel penstock. The DEA finds that 
approval of the amendment application would not constitute a major 
federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human 
environment. The Sugar River II Project is located on the Sugar River, 
in Sullivan County, in Newport, New Hampshire.
    The DEA was prepared by staff in the Office of Hydropower 
Licensing, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Copies of the DEA can 
be viewed at the Commission's Reference and Information Center, Room 
2A, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20406. Copies can also be 
obtained by calling the project manager listed below.
    Please submit any comments within 30 days from the date of this 
notice. Any comments, conclusions, or recommendations that draw upon 
studies, reports, or other working papers of substance should be 
supported by appropriate documentation.
    Comments should be addressed to Lois D. Cashell, Secretary, Federal 
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 
20406. Please denote ``Comments: Project No. 10934-003'' on all 
comments. For more information, please contact the project manager, 
Joseph C. Adamson, at (202) 219-1040.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
