Heber Light & Power Company, Utah; Notice of Availability of 
Draft Environmental Assessment

October 9, 1998.
    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 F.R. 47897), the Office 
of Hydropower Licensing has reviewed the application for a new license 
for the Snake Creek Hydroelectric Project, and has prepared a Draft 
Environmental Assessment (DEA). The U.S.D.A. Forest Service cooperated 
with the Commission by reviewing and commenting on drafts of the DEA. 
The project is located on Snake Creek and partially within the Uinta 
National Forest, in Wasatch County, Utah. The DEA contains the staff's 
analysis of the

potential environment impacts of the project and concludes 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.

Room, Room 2A, of the Commission's offices at 888 First Street, N.E., 
Washington, D.C. 20426.
    Any comments should be filed within 30 days from the date of this 
notice and should be addressed to David P. Boergers, Secretary, Federal 
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 
20426. For further information, contact Nicholas Jayjack, Environmental 
Coordinator, at (202) 219-2825.
