[Project No. 308-007]


PacifiCorp Energy; Notice of Availability of Draft Environmental 
Assessment

    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission) 
regulations, 18 CFR part 380, the Office of Energy Projects has 
reviewed the application for subsequent license for the Wallowa Falls 
Hydroelectric Project, located on Royal Purple Creek and the East and 
West Forks of the Wallowa River in Wallowa County, Oregon, and has 
prepared a Draft Environmental Assessment (DEA) for the project. The 
project occupies 12 acres of federal lands administered by the United 
States Department of Agriculture, Forest Service.
    The DEA contains the staff's analysis of the potential 
environmental effects of the project and concludes that relicensing 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 DEA 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
