Goat Lake Hydro Inc.; Notice of Availability of Final 
Environmental Assessment

September 26, 2002.
    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 FR 47897), the Office 
of Energy Projects has reviewed the application for license amendment 
for the Goat Lake Hydroelectric Project, located on Pitchfork Falls, 
near the town of Skagway, in the First Judicial District, Alaska, and 
has prepared a Final Environmental Assessment (FEA) for the project. 
The project occupies lands of the Tongass National Forest.
    The FEA contains the staff's analysis of the potential 
environmental 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.
    A copy of the FEA is available for review at the Commission in the 
Public Reference Room or may be viewed on the Commission's Web site at 
http://www.ferc.gov using the ``FERRIS'' link. Enter the docket number 
excluding the last three digits in the docket number field to access 
the document. For assistance, call (202) 502-8222 or for TTY, (202) 
502-8659.
    For further information, contact Michael Henry at (503) 944-6762.

Deputy Secretary.
