DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 2142-031]


FPL Energy Maine Hydro LLC; Notice Revising Processing Schedule 
and Issuing an Environmental Assessment

May 17, 2002.
    On December 14, 2001, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission 
(Commission) issued a Scoping Document 2 (SD2) for the Indian Pond 
Project (FERC No. 2142-031). The SD2 included a schedule for processing 
the application for a new license for the Project. The schedule 
estimated issuing a draft environmental assessment (EA) during the 
Spring-Summer 2002 and a final EA during the Fall-Winter 2002.
    The Commission staff will issue one EA rather than issuing a draft 
and final EA. Staff intends to allow at least 30 days for entities to 
comment on the EA, and will take into consideration all comments 
received on the EA before final action is taken on the license 
application. The application will be processed according to the 
following milestones. Revisions to these milestones will be made when 
the Commission determines it is necessary to do so.

Environmental Assessment Fall--Winter 2002
Order on License Decision Spring--2003

Secretary.
