[Project No. 6470-008]


Winooski Hydroelectric Company; 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 the application for a new license to continue to operate and 
maintain the Winooski 8 Hydroelectric Project. The project is located 
on the Winooski River in Washington County, Vermont. The project does 
not occupy federal land. Commission staff has prepared an Environmental 
Assessment (EA) for the project.
    The EA contains the staff's analysis of the potential environmental 
impacts of 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.
    The Commission provides all interested persons with an opportunity 
to view and/or print the EA via the
