DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
[Project No. 3574-004]


Continental Hydro Corp. and Gas Company; Notice of Availability 
of Environmental Assessment

February 28, 1996.
    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 license for 
the Tiber Dam Hydroelectric Project No. 3574-004, located at the Bureau 
of Reclamation's existing Tiber Dam and Lake Elwell, on the Marias 
River in Liberty County, Montana. The Commission has prepared a draft 
Environmental Assessment (EA) for the project. The draft EA contains 
the Commission staff's analysis of the

potential future environmental impacts of the project and has concluded 
that licensing the project, with appropriate environmental protective 
measures, would not constitute a major federal action that would 
significantly affect the quality of the human environment.
    Copies of the EA are available for review in the Public Reference 
Room, Room 2A, of the Commission's offices at 888 First Street, N.E., 
Washington, D.C. 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, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 
20426. For further information, contact Surender M. Yepuri, 
Environmental Coordinator, at (202) 219-3847.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
