DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
[Project No. 2290-006 California]


Southern California Edison Co.; Notice of Availability of 
Environmental Assessment

April 2, 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 new license 
for the Kern River No. 3 Hydroelectric Project, located near the towns 
of Kernville and Fairview in Kern and Tulare Counties, California and 
has prepared a final Environmental Assessment (EA) for the project. In 
the EA, the Commission's staff has analyzed the potential environmental 
impacts of the existing project and has concluded that approval of the 
project, with appropriate environmental protection or 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 2A, of the Commission's offices at 888 First Street, NE., 
Washington, DC 20426.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
