[Project No. 10819-002, Idaho]


Idaho Water Resource Board; Notice of Availability of Final 
Environmental Assessment

June 11, 1997.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission) 
regulations, 18 CFR Part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897), the Office 
of Hydropower Licensing has reviewed the application for an original, 
major license for the Dworshak Small Hydroelectric

[[Page 32776]]

Project (project), and has prepared a final Environmental Assessment 
(EA) for the project. The project is located on the existing water 
conveyance system providing water from the Corps of Engineers' Dworshak 
dam to two fish hatcheries. The Dworshak dam is located on the North 
Fork Clearwater River in Clearwater County, Idaho.
    In the final EA, the Commission's staff has analyzed the existing 
and 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 final EA are available for review in the Public 
Reference Branch, Room 2A, of the Commission's offices at 888 First 
Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
