[Project No. 1951-071; Georgia]


Georgia Power Company; Notice of Availability of Environmental 
Assessment

July 6, 2000.
    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 Energy Projects has 
prepared an environmental assessment (EA) on the Georgia Power 
Company's application for approval of a new commercial dock facility. 
The Georgia Power Company proposes to permit Mr. Scott Jackson 
(permittee), to construct and operate a commercial dock facility on 
Lake Sinclair's Beaver Dam Creek. The proposed facility includes three 
open boat docks with a total of 24 slips, that can accommodate up to 42 
watercraft; a fuel dock; a boat ramp; and a boat drop. The proposed 
facility would be used in conjunction with the permittee's planned 
commercial development on his adjoining property. The Sinclair Project 
is located on the Oconee River, in Putnam and Baldwin Counties, 
Georgia.
    The EA is attached to a Commission order issued on June 27, 2000 
for the above application. Copies of the EA can be obtained by calling 
the Commission's Public Reference Room at (202) 208-1371. Copies of the 
EA can also be obtained through the Commission's homepage at http://www.ferc.fed.us. In the EA, staff concludes that approval of the 
licensee's proposal would not constitute a major Federal action
