DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No. 1417-080]
Central Nebraska Public Power and Irrigation District; Notice of
Availability of Draft Environmental Assessment
August 29, 2002.
In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission)
regulations, 18 CFR part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897), the Office
of Energy Projects has reviewed a Land and Shoreline Management Plan
for the Kingsley Dam Hydroelectric Project, located on the North Platte
and Platte Rivers, in Garden, Keith, Lincoln, Dawson, and Gosper
Counties, Nebraska, and has prepared a Draft Environmental Assessment
(DEA). The Kingsley Dam Project does not occupy any federal or tribal
lands.
The DEA contains the staff's analysis of the potential
environmental impacts of the project and concludes that approving the
Land and Shoreline Management Plan, 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 ``FERRIS'' link. Enter the docket number
excluding the last three digits in the docket number field to access
the document. For assistance, call (202) 502-8222 or for TTY, (202)
208-1659.
Any comments should be filed within 30 days from the date of this
notice and should be addressed to: Magalie R. Salas, Secretary, Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE, Washington, DC
20426. Please affix Project No. 1417-080 to all comments. Comments may
be filed electronically via the Internet in lieu of paper. The
Commission strongly encourages electronic filings. See 18 CFR
385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's Web site
(http://www.ferc.gov) under the ``e-Filing'' link.
