Traverse City Light & Power; Notice of Availability of 
Environment Assessment

March 21, 2006.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's regulations, the Office 
of Energy Projects has reviewed the application requesting the 
Commission's authorization to surrender the license for the Brown 
Bridge Project (FERC Project No. 2978) and exemptions for the Boardman 
Dam Project (FERC Project No. 2979) and the Sabin Dam Project (FERC 
Project No. 2980). These projects are located on the Boardman River in 
Grand Traverse County, Michigan. An environmental assessment (EA) has 
been prepared.
    In the EA, the Commission's staff concludes that approval of the 
subject surrender of license and exemptions would not produce any 
significant adverse environmental impacts, consequently the proposal 
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 
Approving Conditional Surrender of License and Exemptions'', issued 
March 17, 2006, and is available 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 
numbers (P-2978, or P-2979 or P-2980) in the docket field to access the 
document. For assistance, call (202) 502-8222 or (202) 502-8659 (for 
TTY).

Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
