DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 2615-037]


FPL Energy Maine Hydro LLC; Madison Paper Industries; Merimil 
Limited Partnership; Notice of Availability of Draft Environmental 
Assessment

    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's regulations, 18 CFR Part 
380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897), the Office of Energy Projects has 
reviewed the application for a new license for the 4.18-megawatt 
Brassua Hydroelectric Project, located on the Moose River, in Somerset 
County, Maine, and has prepared a draft Environmental Assessment (EA). 
In the EA, Commission staff analyze the potential environmental effects 
of relicensing the project and conclude that issuing a new license for 
the project, with appropriate environmental measures, would not 
constitute a major federal action that would significantly affect the 
quality of the human environment.
    A copy of the EA is on file with the Commission and is available 
for public inspection. The EA may also 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 access documents. For assistance, contact FERC Online Support 
at [email protected] or toll-free at 1-866-208-3676, or for 
TTY, (202) 502-8659.

    Any comments on the EA should be filed within 45 days from the date 
of this notice. Comments may be filed electronically via the Internet.
