[Project No. 12740-003-VA]


Jordan Hydroelectric Limited Partnership; Notice of Availability 
of 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 an original license for the 3.0-megawatt 
(MW) Flannagan Hydroelectric Project located on the Pound River, at the 
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' (Corps) John W. Flannagan Dam and 
Reservoir, near the Town of Clintwood, in Dickenson County, Virginia, 
and has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA). The proposed project 
would occupy approximately 1 acre of federal land managed by the Corps.
    In the EA, Commission staff analyzed the potential environmental 
effects of licensing the project and conclude that issuing a license 
for the project, with appropriate environmental measures, would not 
constitute a major federal action significantly affecting 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 the document. For assistance, contact FERC Online 
Support at [email protected] or toll-free at (866) 208-3676,

    You may also register online at http://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/esubscription.asp to be notified via e-mail of new filings and 
issuances related to this or other pending projects. For assistance,

    Comments on the EA should be filed within 30 days from the issuance 
date of this notice, and should be addressed to the Secretary, Federal 
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Room 1-A, 
Washington, DC 20426. Please affix ``Flannagan Hydroelectric Project 
No. 12740-003'' to all comments. Comments may be filed electronically
