Alcoa Power Generating Inc.; Notice of Availability of 
Environmental Assessment

March 13, 2001.
    An environmental assessment (EA) is available for public review. 
The EA analyzes the environmental impacts of an application by Alcoa 
Power Generating Inc. (Alcoa) to grant a permit to KEJ Marketing Co., 
Inc. for the construction of four boat docks with a total of 48 boat 
slips and one boat ramp on Narrows reservoir, part of the Yadkin 
Hydroelectric Project. Alcoa proposes to grant a second permit to Heron 
Bay Homeowners Association for the use and operation of the above 
facilities. Alcoa is the licensee for the Yadkin Project which is on 
the Yadkin/Pee Dee River in Montgomery, Stanly, Davidson, Rowan, and 
Davie Counties, North Carolina. The Yadkin Project contains the 
following reservoirs: High Rock, Tuckertown, Narrows (Badin), and 
Falls. The project does not occupy any federal lands.
    The EA was written by staff in the Office of Energy Projects, 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Commission staff believe 
approving Alcoa's application would not constitute a major federal 
action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment. 
Copies of the EA can be viewed on the web at www.fer.fed.us/online/
rims.htm. Call (202) 208-2222 for assistance. Copies are also available 
for inspection and reproduction at the Commission's Public Reference 
Room, located at 888 First Street, NE., Room 2A, Washington DC 20426, 
or by calling (202) 208-1371.

Secretary.
