DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 2621-009]


Lockhart Power Company, South Carolina; Notice of Availability of 
Environmental Assessment

November 19, 2010.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission or FERC's) 
regulations, 18 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 380 (Order No. 
486, 52 Federal Register [FR] 47897), the Office of Energy Projects has 
reviewed Lockhart Power Company's application for license for the 
Pacolet Hydroelectric Project (FERC Project No. 2621), located on the 
Pacolet River in Spartanburg County, South Carolina. The project does 
not occupy any Federal lands.
    Staff prepared an environmental assessment (EA), which analyzes the 
potential environmental effects of relicensing the project, and 
concludes that licensing the project, with appropriate environmental 
protection measures, would not constitute a major Federal action that 
would significantly affect the quality of the human environment.
    A copy of the EA is available for review at the Commission in the 
Public Reference Room or 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
