[Project No. 10855-002, Michigan]

 
Upper Peninsula Power Company, Marquette Board of Light and 
PowerProject No. 2589-024, Michigan; Notice of Availability of Final 
Environmental Assessment

August 1, 2002.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission) regulations 
contained in the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 380 (18 CFR part 
380) [FERC Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897], the Office of Energy Projects 
Staff (Staff) has reviewed the application for an initial license for 
the Dead River Project and a new license for the Marquette Project, 
both located on the Dead River in Marquette County, Michigan, and has 
prepared a final environmental assessment (FEA) for the projects. In 
this FEA, the Staff has analyzed the potential environmental effects of 
the existing projects and has concluded that licensing the projects, 
with staff's recommended measures, would not constitute a major federal 
action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment.
    Copies of the FEA are available for review in the Public Reference 
Branch, Room 2-A, of the Commission's offices at 888 First Street, NE., 
Washington, DC 20426. This FEA may also be viewed on the Internet at 
http://www.ferc.gov using the ``RIMS'' link; select ``Docket#'' and 
follow the instructions. Please call (202) 208-2222 for assistance.

Deputy Secretary.
