Lake Dorothy Hydro, Inc.; Notice of Availability of Draft 
Environmental Assessment

June 4, 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), Office of 
Energy Projects staff have reviewed the application for Lake Dorothy 
Hydro, Inc.'s proposed Lake Dorothy Hydroelectric Project and has 
prepared a Draft Environmental Assessment (DEA). The proposed project 
would be located at Lake Dorothy on Dorothy Creek, near Juneau, Alaska, 
and would occupy approximately 1,790 acres of land within the Tongass 
National Forest administered by the U.S. Forest Service. This DEA 
contains the Commission staff's analysis of the potential future 
environmental impacts of the project and has concluded 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.
    Comments on the DEA should be filed by July 3, 2003. Comments 
should be filed with: Magalie R. Salas, Secretary, Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426. 
Documents may also be filed electronically via the Internet in lieu of 
paper. See 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the 
Commission's Web site at http://www.ferc.gov under the ``e-Filing'' 
link.
    Copies of the DEA can be viewed 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
