Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 2035-039 Colorado]


City and County of Denver; Notice of Availability of 
Environmental Assessment

October 5, 2004.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, 
as amended, and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's regulations 
(18 CFR part 380), Commission staff have reviewed an application for 
amendment of license for the Gross Reservoir Project, filed April 22, 
2004, to: (1) Change the location of the project powerhouse and install 
two turbines with synchronous generators, (2) install approximately 580 
feet of new penstock, (3) modify the alignment of the transmission 
lines, (4) construct a parking lot at the proposed powerhouse; and (5) 
increase project generation capacity. The project is located on South 
Boulder Creek, near the city of Boulder, in Boulder County, Colorado. 
The project occupies Federal lands managed by the U.S. Forest Service, 
Roosevelt National Forest, and the Bureau of Land Management.
    In the EA, Commission staff has analyzed the probable environmental

effects of the proposed amendment and have concluded that approval of 
the proposal, 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 attached to a Commission order titled ``Order 
Amending License,'' which was issued October 1, 2004, and is available 
for review and reproduction at the Commission's Public Reference Room, 
located at 888 First Street, NE., Room 2A, Washington, DC 20426. The EA 
may also be viewed on the Commission's Web site at http://www.ferc.gov
