A final environmental assessment (FEA) is available for public review. The FEA is for an application to amend the Smithland Hydroelectric Project. The licensee proposes to replace the licensed three large turbine/generator units with 216 small turbines and 108 generator units.

The FEA was written by staff in the Office of Hydropower Licensing, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Copies of the FEA can be viewed in the Public Reference Branch, Room 2A, of the Commission's offices at 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426.
