DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 2964-006]


City of Sturgis, Michigan; Notice of Availability of Final 
Environmental Assessment

November 15, 2002.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission's) 
regulations, 18 CFR part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897), the Office 
of Energy Projects has reviewed the application for a new license for 
the Strugis Hydroelectric Project located on the St. Joseph River, in 
St Joseph County, Michigan, and has prepared a Final Environmental 
Assessment (FEA) for the project. In the FEA, the Commission's staff 
has analyzed the potential environmental effects of the project and has 
concluded that approval of the project, with appropriate environmental 
measures, would not constitute a major federal action significantly 
affecting the quality of the human environment.
    A copy of the EA is on file with the Commission and is available 
for public inspection. The EA may also 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 toll free 1-866-208-
3676.

of this notice and should be addressed to the Secretary, Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Room 1-A, Washington, DC

Comments may be filed electronically via the Internet in lieu of paper.

385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's website
