DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No.11797-000]
Grande Pointe Power Corporation; Notice of Availability of
Environmental Assessment
October 24, 2002.
In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission or FERC)
regulations contained in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) (18 CFR
part 380 (FERC Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897)), the Office of Energy
Projects staff (staff) reviewed the application for an original minor
license for the Three Rivers Project, located on the St. Joseph River
in the city of Three Rivers, St. Joseph County, Michigan, and has
prepared an environmental assessment (EA) for the project. In this EA,
the staff has analyzed the potential environmental effects of the
existing project and concluded that licensing the project, with staff's
recommended measures, would not constitute a major federal action
significantly affecting the quality of the human environment.
A copy of the EA is available for review at the Commission in the
Public Reference Room, or it may be viewed on the Commission's website
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 (202) 502-
8659 (for TTY).
Any comments should be filed within 45 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 ``Three Rivers Project No. 11797-000,'' to all
comments. For further information, please contact Sean Murphy at (202)
502-6145 or at sean.murphy@ferc.gov.
Comments may be filed electronically via the Internet in lieu of
paper. See 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the
