[Project No. 3267-010]


Bellows-Tower Hydro, Inc.; Notice of Availability of 
Environmental Assessment

June 5, 1998.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's regulations, 18 CFR Part 
380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47910), the Office of Hydropower Licensing 
(OHL) has prepared an environmental assessment (EA) for an application 
to amend the license to delete an old, unused powerhouse from the 
project. This is required by the Commission to reflect the as-built 
condition of the project. The license must be amended because the 
installed capacity and number of turbine generator units are less than 
authorized in the license. In the EA, staff concludes that approval of 
the licensee's proposal would not constitute a major Federal action 
significantly affecting the quality of the human environment. The 
Ballard-Mill Project is located on the Salmon River in Franklin County, 
New York.
    The EA was written by staff in the Office of Hydropower Licensing, 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Copies of the EA are available 
for review at the Commission's Reference and Information Center, Room 
2-A, 888 First Street, NW., Washington, DC 20426.
David P. Boergers,
Acting Secretary.
