[Project No. 2390-056]


Northern States Power Company of Wisconsin, d/b/a Excel Energy 
Inc.; Notice of Availability of Environmental Assessment

October 8, 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 
reviewed an application for amendment of license and has prepared an 
environmental assessment (EA) regarding the licensee's request to amend 
the project license to include the jurisdictional Turtle-Flambeau 
Storage Reservoir as a project feature of the Big Falls Project. The 
Big Falls Project is located on the Flambeau River in Rusk County, 
Wisconsin. This EA concludes that the proposed action, with recommended 
measures, would not constitute a major Federal action significantly 
affecting the quality of the human environment.
    Copies of the EA are available in the Public Reference Room of the 
Commission's offices at 888 First Street, NE., Room 1-A, Washington, DC 
204265. The EA also may be viewed on the Commission's Internet Web site 
(http://www.ferc.gov) using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket 
number ``P-2390'' in the docket number field to access the document.
