[Project No. 8535-039]


Virginia Hydrogeneration and Historical Society, L.C.; Notice of 
Availability of Environmental Assessment

September 7, 2005.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, 
as amended, and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission) 
regulations (18 CFR part 380), Commission staff have reviewed an 
application to surrender the license for the Battersea Project, filed 
December 20, 2004. The project is located on The Appomattox River, in 
the City of Petersburg, Virginia.
    Commission staff prepared an environmental assessment (EA), 
analyzing the probable environmental effects of the proposed surrender, 
and has concluded that approval of the surrender request would not 
constitute a major federal action significantly affecting the quality 
of the human environment.
    A copy of the EA is attached to the Commission order titled ``Order 
Conditionally Accepting Surrender of License,'' issued September 6, 
2005, and is available for review at the Commission's Public Reference 
Room. A copy of 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 (P-8535) in the docket number field to access the document. For 
assistance, call (202) 502-8222, or (202) 502-8659 (for TTY).

Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
