Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 2042-191]


Public Utility District No. 1 of Pend Oreille County, Washington; 
Notice of Availability of 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 an application submitted by Public Utility District No. 1 of 
Pend Oreille County, Washington to amend the license for the Box Canyon 
Project No. 2042, and has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) for 
the proposed amendment. The licensee proposes an amendment of the 
project license to be consistent with the terms of an Amended 
Settlement Agreement and to incorporate revised mandatory conditions 
submitted by the U.S. Department of the Interior under section 4(e) and 
section 18 of the Federal Power Act. The project is located on the Pend 
Oreille River in Pend Oreille County, Washington, and Bonner County, 
Idaho and occupies lands within the Kalispel Indian Reservation and 
lands within the Colville National Forest.
    The EA contains Commission staff's analysis of the potential 
environmental effects of the proposed amendment to the license, and 
concludes that the proposed amendment, with appropriate environmental 
protective measures, would not constitute a major federal action that 
would significantly affect the quality of the human environment.
    The EA may be viewed on the Commission's website at www.ferc.gov 
using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket number (P-2042) in the 
docket number field to access the document. At this time, the 
Commission has suspended access to the 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
