[Project No. 2183-035--Oklahoma]


Grand River Dam Authority; Notice of Availability of 
Environmental Assessment

February 17, 2006.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, 
as amended, and Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or 
Commission) regulations (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47879), the Office of 
Energy Projects has reviewed the application for a new license for the 
Markham Ferry Project (FERC No. 2183-035), located on the Grand River 
in Mayes County, Oklahoma, and has prepared an environmental assessment 
(EA). The EA contains the staff's analysis of the potential 
environmental effects of relicensing the project and concludes that 
issuing a new license, with appropriate environmental 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 also may 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 documents. For assistance, contact FERC Online Support 
at [email protected] or toll-free at 1-866-208-3676, or for 
TTY, (202) 502-8659.
    Any comments on the EA should be filed within 30 days of the 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 reference ``Markham Ferry Project, FERC Project No. 2183-
035'' on all comments. 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 John Ramer at (202) 502-8969.

Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
