City of Hastings; Notice of Availability of Environmental 
Assessment

September 26, 2008.
    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), the Office of Energy Projects has 
prepared an environmental assessment (EA) regarding the City of 
Hastings' (City's) request to install two hydrokinetic turbines at the 
Mississippi Lock and Dam No. 2 Hydroelectric Project. The project is 
located on the Mississippi River in Dakota County, Minnesota. This EA 
concludes that the Proposed Action, with staff's recommended mitigation 
measures, would not constitute a major Federal action significantly 
affecting the quality of the human environment.
    Copies of the EA are available for review in the Public Reference 
Room of the Commission's offices at 888 First Street NE., Washington, 
DC. The EA also may be viewed on the Commission's Internet Web site
