Cannelton Hydroelectric Project LP; Notice of Availability of 
Draft Environmental Assessment

April 30, 1996.
    A draft environmental assessment (DEA) is available for public 
review. The DEA is for an application to amend the Cannelton 
Hydroelectric Project. The licensee proposes to eliminate the 
powerhouse by adding 240 small generating units that would be located 
upstream of the tainter gates within the dam's tainter gate bays and to 
change the approved transmission line. The DEA finds that approval of 
the application would not constitute a major federal action 
significantly affecting the quality of the human environment. The 
Cannelton Hydroelectric Project is located on the Ohio River in Hancock 
County, Kentucky.
    The DEA was written by staff in the Office of Hydropower Licensing, 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Copies of the DEA can be viewed 
in the Public Reference Branch, Room 2A, of the Commission's offices at 
888 First Street NE., Washington, D.C. 20426.
    Please submit any comments within 40 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 NE., Washington, D.C. 
20426. Please affix Project No. 10228-007 to all comments. For further 
information, please contact the project manager, Ms. Rebecca Martin, at 
(202) 219-2650.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
