[Project No. 12063-001]


Little Wood River Ranch II, Idaho William Arkoosh, Notice of 
Availability of Final Environmental Assessment

August 16, 2005.
    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 and prepared the 
enclosed Environmental Assessment (EA) for an original license for 
William Arkoosh's Little Wood River Ranch II Hydroelectric Project. The 
proposed project would be located on the Little Wood River, 6 miles 
west of the town of Shoshone, Lincoln County, Idaho. The proposed 
project would be located entirely on private lands owned by William 
Arkoosh. The EA contains the staff's analysis of the potential 
environmental impacts of the proposed 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 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, call 1-866-208-3676 or for TTY, (202) 
502-8659.
    Any comments should be filed within 30 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 ``Little Wood River Ranch II 
Hydroelectric Project No. 12063'' to all comments. Comments may be 
filed electronically via 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 under the ``eFiling'' 
link. For further information, contact Gaylord Hoisington at (202) 502-
