DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No. 2687 California]


Pacific Gas and Electric Company; Notice of Availability of Draft 
Environmental Assessment

May 27, 1998.
    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 relicensing of 
the Pit 1 Project, located in the towns of Fall River Mills and 
McArthur, California, and has prepared a draft Environmental Assessment 
(DEA) for the project. In the DEA, 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 measures, would not constitute a major federal action 
significantly affecting the quality of the human environment.
    Copies of the DEA are available for review in the Public Reference 
Branch, Room 2-A, of the Commission's offices at 888 First Street, NE, 
Washington, DC 20426.
    Any comments should be filed within 45 days from the date of this 
notice and should be addressed to David P. Boergers, Acting Secretary, 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE, Room 2-A, 
Washington, DC 20426. Please affix ``Pit 1 Project No. 2687'' to all 
comments. For further information, please contact Michael Henry at 
(503) 326-5858, ext. 224.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
