[Project No. 2086-035, California]


Southern California Edison; Notice of Availability of 
Environmental Assessment

May 4, 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 has reviewed the application for license for the 
Vermilion Valley Hydroelectric Project and has prepared an 
Environmental Assessment (EA) for the project. The project is located 
on Mono and Warm Creeks, near Shaver Lake, within the county of Fresno, 
California. The project occupies federal lands within the Sierra 
National Forest, covering a total of 2,202 acres.
    The EA contains the 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 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 ``eLibrary'' 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 should be filed within 45 days from the issuance date 
of this notice, and should be addressed to the Secretary, Federal 
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Room 1-A, 
Washington, DC 20426. Please affix ``Vermilion Valley Hydroelectric 
Project No. 2086'' to all comments. Comments may be filed 
electronically via Internet in lieu of paper. The Commission strongly 
encourages electronic filings. See 18

[[Page 26592]]

CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's Web 
site under the ``e-Filing'' link. For further information, contact Jim 
Fargo at 202-502-6095 or by e-mail at [email protected].
    After reviewing the comments, the Commission will decide whether to 
revise this EA and will notify the parities accordingly.

Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
