DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No. 6299-009]


Dakota and Goodhue Counties; Notice of Availability of 
Environmental Assessment

July 3, 1997.
    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 486, 52 F.R. 47897), the 
Commission's Office of Hydropower Licensing has reviewed an application 
for amending article 2 of the exemption for the Lake Byllesby Project, 
Project No. 6299-009. The Lake Byllesby Project is located on the 
Cannon River, in Dakota County, Minnesota. The application is for 
incorporating annual winter drawdowns in the operation plan for the 
project. An Environmental Assessment (EA) was prepared for the 
application. The EA finds that approving the application 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 of the Commission's offices at 888 First St., N.E., Washington, 
D.C. 20426.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
