DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 12569-001]


Public Utility District No. 1 of Okanogan County, WA, Notice of 
Availability of Final Environmental Assessment

    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 the Public Utility District No. 1 of Okanogan County's 
(Okanogan PUD's) application for license for the Enloe Hydroelectric 
Project (FERC Project No. 12569), located on the Similkameen River near 
the city of Oroville in Okanogan County, Washington. Part of the 
project would occupy a total of 41.76 acres of federal lands 
administered by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management.
    Staff prepared this final environmental assessment (EA), which 
analyzes the potential environmental effects of licensing the project, 
and concludes that licensing the project, with appropriate 
environmental protective measures, would not constitute a major federal 
action that would significantly affect the quality of the human 
environment.
    A copy of the final 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:[sol][sol]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
