Post Falls Hydroelectric Project Spokane River Developments 
Project, Avista Corporation Spokane, WA; Notice of Availability of the 
Final Enivironmental Impact Statement for the Spokane River 
Developments and Post Falls Hydroelectric Projects

July 20, 2007.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission or FERC) 
regulations contained in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) (18 CFR 
part 380 [FERC Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897]) the Office of Energy 
Projects staff (staff) reviewed the applications for New Major Licenses 
for the Spokane River Hydroelectric Project and Post Falls Project. 
Staff prepared a final environmental impact statement (FEIS) for the 
projects which are located on the Spokane River, Washington.
    The FEIS contains staff's analysis of the potential environmental 
effects of the projects and concludes that licensing the projects, with 
staff's recommended measures, would not constitute a major federal 
action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment. 
Copies of the FEIS have been sent to federal, state, and local 
agencies; public interest groups; and individuals on the Commission's 
mailing list.
    A copy of the FEIS is available for review at the Commission's 
Public Reference Room or may be viewed on the Commission's Web site at: 
http://www.ferc.gov using the ``e-Library'' link. Enter the docket 
number (P-2545) or (P-12606), to access the document. For assistance,
