DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No. 10395-025]
City of Augusta, Kentucky, and its Electric Plant Board; Notice
of Availability of Environmental Assessment
December 24, 2003.
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' staff has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA)
for an application for amendment of license requesting Commission
approval to permit the City of Augusta, Kentucky and its Electric Plant
Board (licensee) to change the project design and transmission line
route of the Meldahl Hydroelectric Project. The Meldahl Hydroelectric
Project is located at the Corps' Captain Anthony Meldahl Locks and Dam
on the Ohio River in Bracken County, Kentucky.
The EA contains the staff's analysis of the potential environmental
impacts of the proposal and concludes that approval of the proposal
would not constitute a major Federal action that would significantly
affect the quality of the human environment.
