DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 2782-006 Utah]


Parowan City; Notice of Availability of Draft Environmental 
Assessment

February 10, 2003.
    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 for the Red 
Creek Hydroelectric Project located on Red Creek, in Iron County, Utah, 
and has prepared a draft Environmental Assessment (EA) for the project. 
The project occupies 19.06 acres of United States lands administered by 
the Bureau of Land Management.
    The draft EA contains Commission 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 draft EA 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 contact FERC Online Support at 
[email protected] or toll-free at (866) 208-3676, or for TTY, 
(202) 502-8659.
    Any comments on this draft EA should be filed within 30 days from 
the date of this notice and should be addressed to: Magalie R. Salas, 
Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., 
Washington, DC 20426. Please affix Project No. 2782-006 to all 
comments. Comments may be filed electronically via the Internet in lieu 
of paper. The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings. See 18 
CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's web 
site http://www.ferc.gov under the ``e-Filing'' link.
