DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission


Northern California Power Agency Utica Power Authority; Notice of 
Availability of Final Environmental Assessment

October 25, 2002.

[Project Nos. 2699-001, 2019-017, & 11563-002-California]

    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 applications for licenses for the 
Angels Hydroelectric Project, Utica Hydroelectric Project, and the 
Upper Utica Project. Commission staff, with the U.S. Forest Service as 
a cooperating agency, has prepared a Final Environmental Assessment 
(FEA) for the project. These projects are located on the North Fork 
Stanislaus River, Silver Creek, Mill Creek, and Angels Creek in Alpine, 
Calaveras, and Tuolumne Counties, California, partially within the 
Stanislaus National Forest.
    The FEA contains the analysis of the potential environmental impact 
of the projects and concludes that licensing the projects, 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 on file with the Commission and is available 
for public inspection. The FEA may also be viewed on the web at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``FERRIS'' link. For assistance with FERRIS, the 
FERRIS help line can be reached at (202) 502-8222, TTY (202) 208-1659.
    For further information, contact Timothy Welch at (202) 502-8760.

Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
