[Middle Chattahoochee Project No. 2177-053 Georgia/Alabama]


Georgia Power Company; Notice of Availability of Environmental 
Assessment

April 22, 2004.
    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 (staff) has reviewed the application for a new major 
license for the Middle Chattahoochee Project, located on the 
Chattahoochee River in Harris and Muscogee Counties, Georgia, and Lee 
and Russell Counties, Alabama, and prepared an Environmental Assessment 
(EA) for the project. The project does not affect Federal lands.
    In this EA, the staff analyzes the potential environmental effects 
of the existing project and concludes that licensing the project, with 
staff's recommended measures, would not constitute a major federal 
action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment.
    A copy of the EA and application 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 ``e-Library'' 
link. Enter the docket number excluding the last three digits in the 
docket number field to access the document. For assistance, contact

and issuances related to this or other pending projects. For

    Any comments 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 ``Middle Chattahoochee Project No. 21770-53'' to
