[Project No. 12726-002]
Warm Springs Hydro, LLC; 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 license for the Rock Creek Hydroelectric
Project (project)
[[Page 42854]]
and has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA). The project is
located on Rock Creek near the City of Haines in Baker County, Oregon,
and occupies federal lands administered by the Forest Service.
In the EA, Commission staff analyzes the potential environmental
effects of the project and concludes 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.
The Commission provides all interested persons an opportunity to
view and/or print the EA via the internet through the Commission's Home
Page (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. At this time, the Commission has
suspended access to Commission's Public Reference Room, due to the
proclamation declaring a National Emergency concerning the Novel
Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19), issued by the President on March 13,
2020. For assistance, contact FERC Online Support at
