[Project Nos. 4204-038, 4660-043 and 4659-042]


City of Batesville and Independence County Arkansas; Notice of 
Availability of Environmental Assessment

August 15, 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 for license amendments 
for the White River Lock and Dam No. 1 Project (P-4204), White River 
Lock and Dam No. 2 Project (P-4660) and the White River Lock and Dam 
No. 3 Project (P-4659), and has prepared an Environmental Assessment 
(EA) for the projects. On August 12, 2005, the Order Approving Revised 
Transmission Line Routes was issued and the EA was attached. The 
projects are located on the White River in Independence County, 
Arkansas.
    The EA contains the staff's analysis of the potential environmental 
impacts of the projects and concludes that issuing the amendments, with 
appropriate environmental protective measures, would not constitute a 
major federal action that would significantly affect the quality of the 
human environment.
    The EA is on file with the Commission and is available for public 
inspection. Copies of the EA are available for review in Public 
Reference, Room 2-A at the Commission's offices at 888 First Street, 
NE., Washington, DC. The EA may also be viewed on the Commission's Web 
site at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' link. For 
assistance, contact FERC On Line Support at [email protected] 
or call toll free at (866) 208-3676, or for TTY contact (202) 502-8659.
    For further information, please contact Andrea Shriver at (202)

Secretary.
